What does 'Cause I'm Happy smell like?
It opens bright and a little green with bergamot, grapefruit and cypress. Orange blossom, ambrette and musk soften the heart, and vetiver, cedarwood and ambergris settle into a woody, faintly smoky base.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Voters pick it mostly for daily wear, leisure and work, and opinion on whether it reads masculine or feminine is almost evenly split. Its profile is close to Le Labo Bergamote 22 and Creed Neroli Sauvage.
