What does Ylang in Gold Nectar smell like?

Voters find its longevity and sillage good. Most pick spring and summer, with leisure and nights out leading the occasions, and it reads as feminine.

It opens with orange, geranium and mugwort. The heart of magnolia, rose, ylang-ylang, lily of the valley and sandalwood stays floral. Vanilla, musk and coconut in the base sweeten it into a creamy warmth. M. Micallef Ylang in Gold and The Water Brand Tropica have a close profile.
