What does London (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter comes last. Leisure and daily wear lead, with the office not far behind. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters split almost evenly between masculine and feminine.

It opens with cucumber and violet leaf absolute, cool and green. In the heart, orris root, rose and May rose absolute soften the floral side. The base builds a woody frame from cedarwood, patchouli and sandalwood, while leather and suede add a dry, leathery warmth in the dry-down. Ormonde Jayne 4. Montabaco (Parfum) and Jeanne en Provence Acqua have a close profile.
