What does Zephyr smell like?

The top notes are papaya and tangerine, where fruity sweetness is balanced by the citrus tartness. In the heart, white tea, lily and honeysuckle add a floral, green and aquatic lightness. Musk, sandalwood and amber in the base soften everything.

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Voters choose it most for daily wear, leisure and the office. In character the feminine vote leads, though a good share call it masculine, which leaves it somewhere in between. Bond No. 9 I Love New York for Mothers and Label Lily & Tangerine have a close profile.
