What does Flora Luminare (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, with autumn well behind and winter rarely chosen. It is worn mostly for casual and daily use, and for work. More voters read it as feminine, though it is classed as unisex.

It opens with ylang-ylang, mandarin orange and orange blossom, a citrusy, fresh start. The heart gathers tiaré absolute, jasmine absolute, rose absolute and Tahitian frangipani into a floral whole. In the base, cedarwood, musk and vanilla settle it into a woody, creamy sweetness. Chanel Gabrielle Chanel (Eau de Parfum) and Nishane Tempfluo have a close profile.
