What does Silent Grove smell like?

Citrus and cedar come first, with petitgrain adding a green edge. In the heart, white tea, linden tree and rose otto soften things and bring out the floral side. The base of white lotus, white musk and grass leaves a clean, lightly woody trail.

Voters find longevity moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most pick spring and summer, and daily wear and leisure lead the occasions. Feminine votes edge ahead, though masculine votes are substantial too, so it doesn't read strictly one way. Acqua di Parma Colonia Essenza and Nicolaï Riviera Verbena have a close profile.
