What does Kitrea smell like?

It opens with honey, lemon and bergamot, the honey softening the brightness of the citrus. Fruits sit in the heart, with ambergris and beeswax underneath. The accords read fresh, citrus and aquatic, with green, fruity and sweet sides and a light spicy edge.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters pick it most for leisure, daytime and business wear, with sport also mentioned. Opinion on its character is split between feminine and masculine, so it doesn't commit to one side. Its profile is close to Jo Malone Earl Grey & Cucumber and Acqua di Parma Mandarino di Sicilia.
