What does Water | Bamboo | Freesia smell like?

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays a quiet companion through the day. Most voters pick summer and spring, with leisure, daily wear and the office leading the occasions. It reads mostly feminine, with a modern side too.

The top opens with freesia, watermelon and bamboo, a watery, green and lightly fruity freshness. In the heart, mimosa, salty notes and lotus bring out the floral and aquatic side. At the base, musk, cedarwood and sandalwood sweeten it slightly and settle it on a woody ground. Korres Sikinos and Birkholz First Spring have a close profile.
