What does Une Rose au Bord de la Mer smell like?

It opens with rose, mandarin orange, Italian bergamot, bitter orange and neroli. The heart brings marine notes, jasmine, immortelle absolute and rose absolute; aquatic and green tones keep it light, while a little sweetness and spice sit in the background. The base lays down a soft bed of musk, amber, cistus and ambrette seed.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office lead the occasions. It mostly reads as feminine. Floris Neroli Voyage and Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Mandarine Basilic have a close profile.
