What does S.C. Quelque chose dans l'air. smell like?

The top opens fresh and fruity with mandarin orange, yellow fruits and magnolia. The heart turns floral with lily, rose, jasmine and arnica. In the base, sandalwood, leather and musk settle in and add a slightly spicy, leathery depth.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it sits between a skin scent and a room-filling one. It can be worn by anyone. Magnetix Wellness Tree of Life and Le Jardin Retrouvé Osmanthe Liu Yuan have a close profile.
