What does Inis - the energy of the sea smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, and most voters pick summer and spring. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office, with sport a common choice too. Masculine and feminine votes are almost evenly split, so it sits between the two.

It opens with Sicilian lemon, bergamot, neroli and marine notes for a bright start. Geranium and lily of the valley add a soft floral, green heart. At the base, clove and nutmeg bring spice, while sandalwood, musk and oakmoss steady the scent.
