What does Apogée smell like?

Rose, Grasse jasmine, lily of the valley and Chinese magnolia make up the floral side. Fresh and green accords lighten those flowers, while sandalwood and gaiac wood leave a soft woody ground underneath. A slightly synthetic edge runs through the overall impression.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without overwhelming a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, with leisure, daily wear and business the most chosen occasions. Most voters read it as feminine. Miu Miu L'Eau Bleue and Hatiralar have a close profile.
