What does Eau des Mâtines smell like?

It opens with orange, apple and lemon. In the heart, basil, mint and fig leaf bring a green coolness, while pear blossom adds a soft, sweet floral note. Musk, woods and cedar stay in the background and settle the scent onto a simple woody base.

Longevity and sillage are rated weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters recommend summer and spring, and daily wear, leisure and the office lead the occasions. More voters call it feminine, though a good number see it as masculine. Zara Applejuice and Atelier des Ors Riviera Sunrise have a close profile.
