What does White Lilac & Rhubarb smell like?

White lilac and rose form a floral core, and heliotrope sweetens it slightly. Rhubarb adds a green, fruity freshness. Fresh and green tones lead among the accords, while the sweetness stays in the background.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it sits close to the skin and leaves a soft trail. Most voters pick it for daytime and leisure, followed by the office. Few choose it for a night out or the evening. It reads feminine.
