What does Pure White Linen Light Breeze smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, leaving a light trail through the day. Most voters recommend summer and spring, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Voters mostly read its character as feminine.

It opens with kumquat, Italian bergamot, grapefruit and orange zest, which give a bright citrus feel. In the heart, osmanthus, neroli and linden blossom add a soft floral touch. In the base, cedarwood and acacia honey settle the scent on a lightly woody, sweet ground, while green and fruity tones keep the air clean.
