What does Donna smell like?

It opens with Sicilian lemon, apple and bluebell, with cedar among the top notes. In the heart, white rose, hyacinth and jasmine add a soft floral touch, while bamboo keeps the green, aquatic feel going. The base of cedarwood, musk and amber settles into a lightly sweet, woody finish.

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters recommend summer and spring, and it leans toward daily wear, leisure and the office rather than evenings or nights out. Most voters read it as feminine. Its profile is close to Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue (Eau de Toilette) and Zara Forget Me Not.
