What does Lights smell like?

It opens with lemon zest and bergamot zest for a bright lift, while ylang-ylang and jasmine add a floral edge. In the heart, clove brings spice, and rose and violet leaf soften it with a floral touch. The base of vanilla, amber and sandalwood settles into a sweet, woody, resinous warmth.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters suggest spring and autumn, with leisure and business settings leading and evening wear close behind. Roads Cloud 9 and Renier Perfumes Anacaona have a close profile.
