What does Terrasse à St-Germain smell like?

It opens with rhubarb, tangerine and grapefruit, bright and a little tart. The heart brings blue rose, lotus and freesia, floral and green in a light way. The base of musk, sandalwood and Indonesian patchouli settles it into a powdery, creamy, softly woody finish, with fruity and sweet touches along the way.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays noticeable close by without filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily, office and leisure wear lead the occasions. Just over half of voters read it as feminine, though it is presented as unisex.
