What does Sunflowers Morning Gardens smell like?

It opens bright and fruity with blackcurrant, bergamot, grapefruit and nectarine, while pink pepper and bitter orange blossom add a slight edge. The heart turns floral around sunflower, yellow peony and jasmine sambac, with honeysuckle and Bulgarian rose softening it. It dries down on vetiver, cedar, musk and amber, a woody, gently sweet base.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays a quiet scent close to the skin. Voters pick it mostly for daily wear, leisure and the office. Mexx Mexx Woman and Cacharel Amor Amor have a close profile.
