What does Mimosa & Cardamom (Cologne) smell like?

Mimosa and damask rose draw a floral outline, while cardamom adds a light touch of spice. Heliotrope and tonka bean sweeten it into something powdery and creamy, with sandalwood forming a woody base underneath. A green, fresh feel runs through the whole scent.

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend it for spring, fall and summer, and it suits daily wear, leisure and the office. Though unisex, most voters read it as feminine. Dossier Spicy Mimosa and Galimard Plumetis have a close profile.
