What does La Rose Légère smell like?

It opens with Italian bergamot, woodland strawberry, neroli and blackcurrant, which give a citrusy, fruity brightness. The heart turns to rose absolute, jasmine absolute, ylang-ylang, violet and lily of the valley, like a floral garden. White musk, sandalwood and amber soften the base, leaving a sweet, woody, powdery trail.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall chosen far less often. Daily, leisure and business settings lead, while evening and night-out wear trail behind. It has been discontinued. Dior Milly-la-Forêt and Fragonard Cœur de Soleil have a close profile.
