What does Sakura smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays present without dominating. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daytime, leisure and office wear lead the occasions. Though it is unisex, more than half of voters read it as feminine.

Cherry blossom, rose and almond are read together throughout. Cherry blossom and rose give the fresh, floral face; almond sweetens it and pulls it toward a powdery, creamy softness. Chloé Chloé Fleur de Parfum and Tom Ford Rose d'Amalfi have a close profile.
