PowderyWhat does Sweet Lemon smell like?
Its longevity is rated moderate, though only a few votes back that up, so it is a tentative reading. As a unisex scent, its fresh, sweet character suits daytime wear. It has been discontinued.
It opens with lemon, bergamot and rhubarb, then freesia, pineapple and peach add a fruity, gourmand sweetness. Cypress, musk and cedar leave a powdery, lightly woody base. The overall character is fresh, citrusy and floral.
