From your scent profile
Penhaligon's Artemisia Eau de Parfum is a feminine scent that opens with green leaves, nectarine and green apple, softened by violet and lily of the valley, and settles on amber and sandalwood.
Skunky's take: That just-out-of-the-shower feeling, clean and fresh.

PowderyWhat does Artemisia (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend it for spring, followed by fall and summer, while winter is chosen less often. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Most voters find it feminine and classic.
Green leaves and nectarine give the opening a fresh, juicy feel. In the heart, green apple and jasmine tea meet floral notes, with vanilla adding a light sweetness. The base of amber, sandalwood, musk and oakmoss closes it with a powdery, woody warmth. Yves Saint Laurent Paris (Eau de Toilette) and Fragonard Émilie (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
