What does Scapa of Scotland smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong, with most voters giving it a high score, though the number of votes is small, so that picture is tentative. It is positioned as a feminine fragrance.

The top opens with neroli, pittosporum and melon, fresh and lightly fruity. In the heart, iris, rose and jasmine carry the floral side, while oakmoss and sandalwood add a green, woody backdrop. The base of vanilla, ambergris and musk softens it. Aquatic, powdery and spicy shades round out the accords.
