It opens with orange blossom, fruits and cherry, a fruity, sweet start. The heart moves to jasmine, lily of the valley and tulip, where the floral side takes over. Musk in the base softens everything.
Subtil reads as feminine. Voters rate its longevity as moderate, though with few votes that judgement is tentative. No season or occasion votes exist, so there is nothing to add on those. Patio Jazmín and Zara Cherry Temptation have a close profile.
