What does Champs de Provence smell like?

It opens with bergamot, pear and orange, a bright, juicy citrus. In the heart, jasmine absolute, rose absolute and orange blossom add a soft floral layer. The base of maté, ambroxan and moss keeps the scent green and clean, with a light spicy edge alongside.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters recommend summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most as occasions. Though sold as a men's scent, a share of voters finds it feminine. Le Labo Fleur d'Oranger 27 and Goutal L'Île au Thé have a close profile.
