What does Mahasin Crystal Violet (Pure Concentrated Perfume Oil) smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn a smaller third. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Most voters read it as feminine, though many call it modern.

It opens with orange blossom, pear, orange and bergamot, a citrusy, fruity freshness. The heart of jasmine, lily of the valley, freesia, rose and orchid builds a floral, garden-like middle. In the base, ambergris, vanilla and musk soften it into something powdery, creamy and lightly sweet, with aquatic and synthetic touches alongside.
