What does Eau Simple de Concombre smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both moderate, and most voters pick summer, then spring. Leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. It doesn't lean to one side: masculine and feminine votes are equal.

Cucumber and watermelon bring the coolness, with mint and grass adding a green crispness. Freesia softens it towards the floral side. Synthetic materials such as Calone, Galaxolid and Adoxal give it a clean, aquatic feel. The scent stays fresh and green throughout. Marc Jacobs Rain and Jil Sander Sun Bath have a close profile.
