What does Oranges and Lemons, say the Bells of St. Clement's smell like?

Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin as a light scent. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, which puts its character somewhere in between.

The top is mandarin orange, orange, lemon and bergamot, opening fresh and fruity. In the heart, petitgrain, neroli and Earl Grey tea soften it towards green and lightly floral. Vetiver and ylang-ylang sit at the base, with a faint spicy touch among the accords.
