What does Lumière de Venise smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Voters lean towards fall and spring, with summer and winter picked less often. It is chosen mostly for leisure and daily wear, and also for the office.

It opens with citrusy grapefruit and bergamot. The heart of rose, violet, peach and jasmine adds a floral, fruity sweetness. In the base, patchouli, sandalwood, oakmoss and tonka bean settle it onto a woody, lightly spicy footing.
