From your scent profile
Jil Sander Lily is a fresh, green floral that pairs jasmine, cypress and the sweet, resinous warmth of benzoin, and it is worn as a unisex fragrance.
Skunky's take: Fresh off the line, be the first to try it.

Voters rate Lily's longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small, so that impression is not yet firm. Its profile does not lean to one gender and sits comfortably on both women and men.
Jasmine sambac leads, cypress draws a green, woody line, and aldehydes keep the scent bright and fresh. Siam benzoin adds a soft, sweet, resinous note, with a faint spicy and smoky tone in the background.
