What does Velvet Leaf smell like?

The top notes are heliotrope and linden tree, opening on a floral, sweet freshness. In the heart, broom and jasmine sambac carry the floral thread. The base of ambroxan, vetiver and woody notes settles it onto a dry, earthy ground, with a slightly synthetic sheen.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, and they rate its value for money highly. With few votes so far, these ratings are still tentative. Marc-Antoine Barrois Tilia and Afford Fresh Bloom have a close profile.
