What does Hylnds - Foxglove smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring, summer and fall, with winter the least chosen. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Voters read it as more feminine than masculine, though a fair share call it masculine. It has been discontinued.

The top opens with carrot, rosewood and citron zest. Champaca, iris and neroli bring a soft floral heart. In the base, suede, immortelle, ambergris and peach skin sweeten the scent and settle it into a powdery, leathery finish. Fruity and spicy touches stay in the background.
