What does Tempête de Zeste smell like?

It wears close to the skin: longevity is moderate and sillage weak, though the small number of ratings makes this only a rough guide. Being unisex, it suits men and women alike.

The overall feel is fresh, citrusy and aquatic. In the top, mandarin orange, grapefruit and blackcurrant bring a bright fruity zing, while basil adds a green edge. The heart turns soft and watery with cyclamen, water iris and freesia. Sandalwood and patchouli form a woody, lightly sweet base.
