What does Eau de Courrèges (2012) smell like?

It opens with petitgrain, bergamot and lime, a sharp and airy citrus note. In the heart, mint, lily of the valley and absinth bring a green coolness, while moss, patchouli and vetiver settle it onto a woody, earthy base.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it suits leisure, daily wear and the office. Votes on its character are split closely between masculine and feminine. Goutal Eau du Sud and Courrèges Eau Hyper Fraîche have a close profile.
