What does Malachite smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is chosen mostly for leisure and daily wear. Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Votes on character are close between masculine, modern and feminine.

The top opens with blackcurrant, green mandarin orange and bergamot, and the heart brings pink pepper, jasmine and lavender. In the base, vetiver, musk and amber take over, settling into a soft, woody sweetness. Overall it reads fresh, floral and fruity.
