What does Dot smell like?

It opens with leaf green, bitter orange and pepper, so citrus and greenery meet a slight peppery edge. Osmanthus absolute and frankincense soften the middle into something floral, and amberwood settles it on a dry base. The overall impression is fresh and floral, with a slightly synthetic edge.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daytime, leisure and office wear. It leans feminine in the votes, though a fair number read it as masculine.
