What does Navigations Through Scent - Valbonne smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, neither heavy nor faint. Voters pick it most for leisure, business and daily wear, with evening and night out trailing behind. It leans slightly masculine in the votes, though a good share of voters read it as feminine.

It opens with mandarin orange and orange blossom, fresh and fruity. In the heart, purple iris, Provençal mimosa and rose bring out the floral side. Leather and vetiver in the base add a woody, leathery depth with a slightly spicy edge.
