What does Like a Walk in the Summer Rain smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily, leisure and office use lead the occasions. Many voters read it as feminine, and a good share call it modern.

Lemon, orange and watermelon open with a light fruity freshness, brightened by aldehydes. In the heart, freesia, lily of the valley, ozonic and marine notes give a floral, aquatic feel. Musk, moss and cedarwood settle underneath as a soft, lightly woody base.
