What does Tears smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters find the staying power high. It reads neither distinctly masculine nor feminine, so it suits anyone. The number of votes is small, though, so these impressions are still tentative.

It opens with sage, galbanum and ambrettolide in a cool, green start. In the heart, jasmine, narcissus and orris root add a floral, powdery softness, while sweet vernal grass keeps the greenness going. The base of vetiver, hay, cypriol and musk sets a woody, earthy and faintly smoky ground.
