What does Spectral Grace smell like?

Longevity and projection are both rated moderate, though the small number of ratings means these readings are tentative. It leaves a clean, understated trail through the day rather than a heavy cloud.

It opens with petrichor and white blossoms, the wet-earth note leading the florals. In the heart, jasmine, rose and lily of the valley carry the floral line, while woods and dust add a dry, powdery edge. The base of ambergris, sandalwood and musk softens it and closes on a calm warmth. Guy Laroche J'ai Osé Aqua and Puig Thaïs have a close profile.
