SyntheticWhat does Amongst Waves smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer, with leisure and business as the leading occasions. Longevity and sillage are rated good. It reads as neither clearly masculine nor feminine, with both getting equal votes.
It opens with the fruity brightness of pomegranate and green apple, sharpened slightly by ginger. In the heart, iris and tulip add a soft floral touch while aquatic notes and sea salt keep it cool. Vanilla and patchouli sweeten the base.
