What does J.R. J'ai l'air de ce que je suis. smell like?

The top is a bright, spicy citrus built from cardamom, clementine and Italian bergamot. In the heart, lilac, violet leaf, iris and French narcissus absolute add a green floral streak with a powdery, creamy softness. The base of musk, cedar, moss and sandalwood settles it onto a woody ground.

Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and leaves a quiet trail, though these ratings rest on few votes. It reads clean and light, and suits men and women alike. Perfumes with a close profile include Ermenegildo Zegna Florentine Iris and Fragonard Belle de Grasse.
