What does Nirvana French Grey smell like?

Neroli, musk and lavender sit together here. Citrus and green accords keep it bright and clean, while the floral and powdery side softens it and adds a touch of sweetness.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it is noticed up close without filling a room. Most voters pick spring, followed by fall and summer; leisure, daily wear and business are the most mentioned settings. Most voters find it feminine. Prada Un Chant d'Amour and Celine Rimbaud have a close profile.
