What does 16 Jardins de Kérylos smell like?

Green fig leads at the start, then white peach and sycamore wood sweeten and soften it in the heart. Tuberose and musk leave a floral warmth underneath. The overall impression is fresh, green and lightly sweet, neither heavy nor powdery.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin and keeps quiet. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it is suggested mainly for leisure, daytime and office wear. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, so it reads in between. Loewe Solo Ella Elixir and Rituals Cloudscape have a close profile.
