What does Sun & Sea smell like?

The scent is built on citrus notes, sea buckthorn and fern: bright, green and lightly fruity. Vetiver and musk set that freshness on a dry base, while Peru balsam adds a soft, sweet, powdery and creamy undertone in the background.

Voters place it mostly in leisure, daytime and office wear, with evening and sport further behind. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin, though the small number of votes makes this a tentative read. Its profile is close to M. Micallef EdenFalls and Gritti Neroli Extreme.
