What does L.12.12 Rose smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and office are the occasions named most often. Longevity and sillage both rate as moderate, so this is a light, easy scent rather than a loud one.

It opens cool with mint and green mandarin orange. The heart centres on rose, frangipani and musk, adding a creamy softness. In the base, musk, cedarwood and amber sweeten and settle it. Zara Tender Amber and Dolce & Gabbana Light Blue Love is Love have a close profile.
