What does Selenium smell like?

Only a few people have rated it, but they find both its longevity and its sillage strong, so it stays noticeable on the skin for a long time. Being unisex, it suits both men and women.

It opens fresh, citrusy and aquatic, with grapefruit and apple adding a fruity brightness. Rose and lily of the valley carry it in a floral direction. In the base, cedarwood, sandalwood, musk, vanilla and coumarin set down a soft, woody ground. Armand Lumière Lumium 495 and Tous H₂O have a close profile.
