What does Citrus smell like?

Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin without filling a room. Voters place it in daily, business and leisure use, and some pick it for sport. Feminine and masculine votes are almost even, so it sits comfortably on either.

It opens with pink grapefruit, yuzu, mandarin orange and blood orange in a bright citrus burst. The heart turns softly fruity with nectarine, pear and red apple, while pineapple and gardenia add a touch of sweetness. Blackcurrant leaf, lemon leaf and rosewood close it on a green, clean note.
