What does Metal Lavender smell like?

The notes have no top, heart and base split, so it reads as one piece from start to finish. The two lavenders bring a floral, green freshness, cashmeran adds a woody, slightly spicy depth, and musk softens the edges. The overall impression is fresh, though a synthetic accord is clearly part of it.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn close behind and winter chosen least. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most voted occasions. On character, masculine and modern lead, with feminine also well represented. Byredo Super Cedar and Comme des Garçons Zero have a close profile.
