What does Balade Sauvage smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, while autumn lags behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most often. Feminine and masculine votes are close, so it sits in the middle of the gender line.

The notes are fig tree, citrus fruits and marine notes. A fresh, aquatic character leads, softened by green and fruity touches. Floral, sweet and creamy tones, plus a faint spicy, woody trace, stay in the background.
