What does Dune Sun smell like?

Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin as a soft scent. With few ratings behind it, this is only a rough guide.

It opens with blackcurrant and mandarin orange for a fruity freshness. The heart of freesia, lotus and jasmine turns softly floral. The base of sandalwood, musk and vanilla leaves a woody, powdery, sweet warmth. Kayali Musk | 12 and Jil Sander Style Soft have a close profile.
