What does Frescaessenza smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, so it sits comfortably on either side.

It opens with mandarin orange, pink pepper, petitgrain and lime leaf, a fresh, green start with a light spicy edge. The heart of May rose absolute, iris powder and white lilac adds a soft, powdery floral touch. Sandalwood, cedarwood and white musk lay a woody base underneath.
