What does Cool Elixir Safran Mineral smell like?

Saffron leads the opening, cedarwood gives the heart a woody frame, and apple sweetens the base. The overall impression is fresh and fruity, with a lightly spicy, woody backdrop, while the synthetic accord adds a bright, clean edge.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and fall, it also works in winter, and summer is the least chosen season. It leans towards leisure time and nights out, and reads as masculine and modern. Zara Amber Ego and Avon Attraction One Fresh have a close profile.
