What does Lily Chic smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room.
It opens with pear and green apple, which give a fruity freshness. In the heart, lily of the valley and lemon tree add a floral, green note. The base brings grapefruit, lime and amber, keeping the citrus over a sweet, warm footing. Overall it reads fresh, lightly sweet and a little synthetic.
