What does Relent smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick autumn, followed by spring and winter, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most. Close to half of voters read it as feminine, though it sits comfortably as a unisex scent.
It opens fresh and citrusy with eucalyptus, orange and lemon. In the heart, rose, orange blossom and iris bring a floral, powdery softness. The base of musk, citron, amber and vanilla settles into a sweet, creamy and lightly spicy warmth.
