What does Private Garden smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and business are the most chosen occasions. In character votes, masculine leads, followed by modern.
The top is citrusy and fruity, with green apple and eucalyptus keeping it crisp. Persian jasmine adds a floral touch in the heart, while amber and Bourbon vanilla sweeten it. The base of vanilla, musk and amber leaves a creamy, soft trail.
