What does Tahitian Waters smell like?

Grapefruit, mint and mandarin orange open it on a bright, crisp note. In the heart, lily, magnolia and jasmine add a soft floral layer. The base of patchouli, amber and cedarwood closes it on a warm, woody footing, while the fruity and sweet side stays quietly behind the freshness.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, though the small number of votes means these ratings are tentative. Its light, clean character suits everyday wear. Tommy Hilfiger Tommy Girl and Birkholz Portraits of Portofino have a close profile.
