What does Ocean Sun smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate, though each rests on only a few ratings. Voters lean towards it for business hours and everyday wear, with leisure and sport following behind, and few choose it for a night out. It is presented as a feminine fragrance.

The Nashi pear, mandarin orange and green mango give the opening a fresh, citrusy, fruity feel. At the heart, orchid, violet and lily of the valley add a soft floral touch, while the aquatic and sweet accords keep it light. White musk and woods underneath leave it clean and woody. Rituals Océan Infini and Parfums d'Elmar Mahina have a close profile.
