What does Sweet Delicious Tart Key Lime smell like?

Longevity sits around the middle and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin. Voters pick it mostly for daily and leisure wear, with office use next and evening far behind.

It opens with mandarin orange, orange and bergamot for a bright citrus start. The heart brings basil, ginger, neroli and lime cake, where sweetness and green notes blend. Violet leaf in the base turns it soft and powdery. Perfumes with a close profile include French Avenue Pinnace Oryn and The Different Company Osmanthus.
