CreamyWhat does Scent Stories Vol.2/Ch.01 - Ad Lumen smell like?
Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, business and daily wear come up most often. Most voters read it as feminine.
Citrus notes and Italian bergamot open it bright, followed by a floral heart of Egyptian jasmine and rose. Musk sits underneath, and the scent settles into a powdery, creamy softness with a slightly synthetic sheen. Amethyst Ward and Philosophy Amazing Grace (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
