What does Highgrove Bouquet smell like?

Tuberose, mimosa and geranium carry the floral side, orris root adds powder and lavender brings a fresh edge. Cedar and weeping silver lime hold it on a green, woody footing. Fresh, floral and green accords lead, while the sweet and creamy facets stay in the background and soften the whole.

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as good. Most pick spring and summer, followed by fall, and leisure, daily wear and business are the most chosen settings. It is voted feminine more than anything else, though classic and masculine also get votes. Penhaligon's The Revenge of Lady Blanche and Guerlain Joyeuse Tubéreuse have a close profile.
