WoodyWhat does Valensole Lavender smell like?
It opens with saffron and lemon: the lemon brings brightness and the saffron a spicy warmth. Lavender takes over in the heart and adds a soft floral touch. Gaiac wood forms a woody base underneath, and the overall impression is fresh, slightly sweet and a little synthetic.
It is positioned as a men's scent. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than filling a room. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are only an indication. Its profile is close to Prada Luna Rossa Ocean Le Parfum and Parfums de Marly Valero.
