SyntheticWhat does Lumière (2000) smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than filling a room. The number of ratings is small, so these impressions are tentative.
The top notes of lily of the valley and honeysuckle give a fresh, citrusy, green opening. In the heart, apricot adds a fruity softness while damask rose brings floral depth. The base of musk, sandalwood and vanilla sweetens the scent and settles it into a warm finish. A slightly synthetic sheen is part of the profile.
