What does Lily of the Valley (1970) / Muguet smell like?

Citrus fruits add a light brightness in front of the lily of the valley. In the heart, jasmine and rose fill out the floral body and sweeten it, while musk at the base softens everything. The overall impression is clean, green and gentle, like a small flower garden.

It is described as a feminine scent. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin without announcing itself. The number of votes is small, so this reading rests on a limited sample. Molinard Muguet (Eau de Parfum) and Guerlain Muguet 2012 have a close profile.
