What does When the Linden Blooms smell like?

Linden blossom, jasmine and white lilac form the floral core, while green tea and Italian bergamot keep it bright. Apricot adds a fruity softness, vanilla and Sumatran benzoin sweeten it, and sandalwood and cedarwood give it a woody footing.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer; it is chosen mostly for leisure and daily wear, and it suits the office too. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together, and it reads as modern. Roberto Cavalli Gemma di Paradiso and Byredo Mojave Ghost (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
