What does Cattleya Flower smell like?

Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin as a quiet fragrance. Since only a few people have voted so far, these ratings are a rough guide rather than a firm measure. It suits anyone, with no leaning to either side.

The scent runs as one fresh floral: orchid leads while citrus fruits add a bright lift. Gentian and vetiver draw a green, faintly earthy background. Aquatic and sweet accords soften the floral heart. Annayake Natsumi (2014) and Gritti Pomelo Sorrento have a close profile.
