What does Stem smell like?

It opens with hyacinth, freesia leaf and mandarin orange leaf, giving a sharp, green freshness. In the heart, green stems and jasmine soften the floral side, while vetiver, white cedar, musk and ambrox settle it onto a clean, lightly woody base. The accords also carry a synthetic edge.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though with few votes that reading is tentative. It suits those who want a plain, floral-green scent. Sangado Hyacinth and Floris Lily have a close profile.
