CreamyWhat does Sphinx - Hommage à Greta Garbo smell like?
Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters choose daily wear, followed by business and leisure, while few pick sport.
The top opens with peach, yuzu and lychee, fruity and bright. In the heart, rose leaf, peony and lotus add a floral, slightly aquatic and green touch. The base of musk and cedarwood settles it into a creamy, sweet warmth.
