What does Eau de Hongrie (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, so it stays close without pushing into the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, business and leisure lead the occasions. It can work in autumn too, but fits winter far less.

The top opens with lavender, melon and bergamot, which read fresh, citrusy and lightly fruity. In the heart, galbanum, jasmine and lily of the valley add a floral, green softness. The base of cedarwood, amber and cistus settles it onto a woody, spicy footing. The fougère structure meets an aquatic touch.
