What does Velvet Flora smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter gets the fewest votes. Daily wear, leisure and business split almost evenly, so it isn't tied to one setting. Most voters read it as feminine, though it is sold as unisex.

Bergamot opens it with freshness. In the heart, lily, saffron blossom and jasmine form a floral centre. The base of cedar, moss, patchouli and musk leaves a woody, earthy ground. Fresh and floral accords carry the scent, with sweet and spicy touches and a slightly synthetic side.
