What does Soleil de Provence smell like?
Citrus and green tones give it a fresh start, while mimosa and ylang-ylang add a powdery, creamy floral softness. Benzoin and vanilla keep the sweetness gentle and round off the edges.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Most voters read it as feminine. Argos La Primavera and Jo Malone Jasmine Sambac & Marigold have a close profile.
