What does lumen_esce smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin without crowding anyone. It suits men and women alike and fits calm, everyday wear. The vote count is small, so this is only a first impression.

As a whole, bergamot brings freshness to a floral heart of jasmine sambac, freesia and Bulgarian rose. Violet leaf adds a green coolness, while patchouli lays a woody, earthy base underneath. A synthetic sheen also runs through the accords. Nomenclature Neo Rose and Lalique Perles de Lalique have a close profile.
