What does Lei smell like?
The ivy's green coolness and the citrus come first. Rose and jasmine then form a floral heart. Patchouli, oakmoss and amber give an earthy base, while vanilla softens it into something creamy and powdery.
Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the vote count is small. It suits women who want fresh citrus alongside oriental warmth. Guerlain Eau de Shalimar and Gabriella Chieffo Camaheu have a close profile.
