What does Sumatra Rain (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters recommend spring and summer, with leisure and daily wear leading and office use close behind. Most voters call it masculine, while others see it as modern or classic.

The top of petitgrain, lavender, galbanum, lemon and bergamot feels crisp and green. Cyclamen, jasmine, rose and orange blossom then add a soft floral heart. In the base, tonka bean, cedar and amber sweeten it slightly and settle it onto a woody foundation.
