What does Nectar Love smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn also used and winter rarely chosen. Leisure, daily and office wear lead, while evening and night out come well behind. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, and most voters read it as feminine and modern.

It opens with nectarine, mandarin orange, grapefruit and yellow freesia, bright and juicy. Jasmine, mirabelle plum and lily of the valley carry the floral heart. Musk, vanilla and cedarwood sweeten the base into a creamy, lightly gourmand finish. Mexx Inspired Warmth for Her and Câline Mon Paradis have a close profile.
