What does Summer of 84 smell like?

Citrus leads: lemon, grapefruit and bergamot keep it bright and lively. Aquatic notes deepen that coolness, melon adds a soft fruity touch, white blossoms bring a light floral note, and musk gathers everything on a smooth base.

Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions it leans towards. Both its longevity and its sillage are rated good. Votes split almost evenly between masculine and feminine, so it sits comfortably on either side. Douglas Bloomy Heaven and Jouissance En Plein Air have a close profile.
