What does Lemon Tart smell like?

Its longevity is rated moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. The number of voters is small, so these ratings are a tendency rather than a firm measure.

The notes read as a single whole: citrus fruits lead, vervain and broad-leaved thyme add a green freshness, and meringue softens the bright edge into something sweeter. The fruity accord rounds it out. Jeanne en Provence Verveine Cédrat and L'Occitane en Provence Verveine Mandarine have a close profile.
