What does Le Petit Grain smell like?

The top opens with Italian bergamot, Sicilian lemon and Valencia orange for a bright citrus start. In the heart, Tunisian neroli, petitgrain absolute, tarragon and lavender bring together the floral and green sides, while red thyme and rosemary add a spicy touch. The base of patchouli, oakmoss and vetiver dries the scent down on a woody footing.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most mentioned settings. More voters call it masculine than feminine, but it stays open to anyone. Perfumer H Neroli and Xerjoff Nio have a close profile.
