What does VIIth Rue smell like?

The citrus notes come first, and the rose carries that freshness into a floral, lightly fruity tone. In the base, amber, sandalwood and white musk sweeten the scent and settle it into a powdery, creamy finish.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Voters choose it mostly for daily wear and the office, with leisure not far behind. Jo Malone Nashi Blossom and Louis Vuitton City of Stars have a close profile.
