What does Halston Sheer smell like?

It opens with pear and apple blossom, giving a lightly fruity freshness with a cool aquatic edge. Lilac takes the heart and pushes the scent in a floral direction. In the base, sandalwood and musk leave a woody, powdery and slightly sweet finish.

Longevity is moderate, though the vote count is small, so that judgement rests on a limited sample. With its light, clean character it reads as a fragrance for women. Keiko Mecheri Peau de Pêche and Issey Miyake L'Eau d'Issey Pivoine have a close profile.
