What does Chypre Caresse smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, and most voters pick spring and summer, with winter rarely chosen. It leans towards leisure, work and everyday wear, and much less towards evenings. Masculine and feminine votes sit close together, so it fits either way.

The notes read as one whole rather than in stages: lemon brings freshness, jasmine and angelica add a green, floral tone, and patchouli gives a light woody, spicy ground. The result is bright, dry and simple.
