CreamyWhat does Mimosa smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both moderate: neither a skin scent nor one that fills a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear and leisure are the most chosen occasions. Most voters read its character as feminine.
The top is aldehydes, bergamot, neroli and cyclamen, bright and citrusy. In the heart, jasmine, tuberose and orange blossom carry it into floral territory. The base of mimosa, ambroxan and white musk leaves it sweet, powdery and creamy.
