What does Aqua Admirabilis smell like?

It opens with orange, lemon, bergamot and petitgrain, bright citrus with a slightly bitter green edge. In the heart, lavender and Italian neroli pull it in a clean, floral direction. The base holds orange blossom, rosemary and ambrette seed: rosemary adds a green, spicy note, while ambrette seed keeps the scent on a soft, lightly woody footing. A fruity undertone sits behind the citrus. It suits anyone looking for something cool, fresh and uncomplicated. Hermès Un Jardin en Méditerranée and Bon Parfumeur 001 Fleur d'Oranger Petit Grain Bergamote have a close profile.
