What does Verbenas of Provence smell like?

Most voters pick summer and spring, and it leans towards daytime, work and leisure. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. More voters call it feminine, though a good number see it as masculine.

Lemon vervain opens with a citrusy, fruity freshness, and rosemary adds a spicy, green edge to the heart. Cypress and moss settle it onto a woody, earthy base, with the floral touches staying in the background. Jo Malone Grapefruit and Hermès Un Jardin en Méditerranée have a close profile.
