What does Closer Apart smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of ratings is small, so this impression isn't conclusive. It has no clear gender lean and sits comfortably on both men and women.

It starts fresh and citrusy, with pear and ginger adding a fruity, lightly spicy edge. In the heart, lavender and rose build a floral balance while caramel brings sweetness and a creamy softness. Cedarwood, Ambrocenide® and musk leave a woody, clean trail at the base.
