What does No. 1 smell like?

Citrus leads at the start, with lemon and orange giving it a bright, fruity feel. In the heart, ylang-ylang, jasmine and rose add a soft floral note, and the sweet accord becomes clearer here. At the base, cedarwood and musk settle it onto a calm, woody footing.

Longevity is moderate and sillage is good, though only a few voters have rated them. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn and winter not far behind. It suits daily wear and the office best. Benetton Paradiso Inferno Pink and The Merchant Of Venice Lemon Splash have a close profile.
