What does L'Eau cHic smell like?

Most voters recommend spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and work are the occasions named most often. Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin without filling the room. Votes for feminine and masculine are almost level.

The top is lemon, mint and bergamot, opening sharp and bright with citrus. In the heart, clove, chamomile, geranium and lavender bring a floral, green and slightly spicy turn. Sandalwood and musk in the base soften it and close on a calm, woody note.
