What does Melody of the Sun smell like?

It wears at a moderate strength, with moderate longevity and sillage, which makes it easy to carry through the day. Most voters pick summer and spring, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often. It leans slightly feminine, though a fair share of voters read it as masculine.

It opens with lemon and grapefruit, softened by lavender, pear, Indian cardamom and blackcurrant into something fruity and lightly spiced. In the heart, osmanthus, green tea, jasmine and cedarwood bring a floral, green balance. Musk, amber and Brazilian maté sweeten the base gently. Moschino Funny! and Chanel Chance Eau Tendre (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
