What does Silver Birch & Lavender smell like?

It opens bright and citrusy with grapefruit. True lavender takes the heart, setting a fougère mood alongside floral and spicy touches. Silver birch and roasted oak settle the base into a woody footing.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily and business wear lead the occasions. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though a fair share see it as feminine. Czech & Speake Oxford & Cambridge (Cologne) and Maison Francis Kurkdjian masculin Pluriel have a close profile.
