What does Skin Petals smell like?

It opens with apple blossom and blackcurrant, which give a light, fruity freshness. The heart brings jasmine, lily of the valley, violet and white iris; the floral side leads here and carries a powdery feel. In the base, white amber and musk hold those flowers on a soft, creamy footing.

The sweetness never turns heavy and stays in the background beside the fresh accord, so the scent reads clean and close to the skin. Marc Gebauer Purple Flamingo and Marc Gebauer Amorist have a similar note and accord profile.
