What does Dilettante smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and summer, though it also works in fall. It leans towards leisure, evening and nights out; voters read it as somewhat more feminine, yet it stays unisex in feel.

Petitgrain and orange build the fresh, green face of the scent, while orange blossom adds a creamy, floral softness. Resins leave a spicy, sweet warmth behind. Citrus dominates and the fruity sweetness stays in the background. L'Artisan Parfumeur Fleur d'Oranger and Le Labo Fleur d'Oranger 27 have a close profile.
