What does Hope (2009) smell like?

It opens with bright, slightly green citrus from bergamot and lemon. In the heart, vanilla, lavender and cedar turn that freshness creamy and powdery. The base of Australian sandalwood, abelmoschus and oakmoss lays down a woody, resinous floor.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick fall, with spring and summer close behind. Leisure and evening lead the occasions, though office and daily wear also fit. Though marketed to women, voters split almost evenly between calling it masculine and feminine.
