What does Laine de Verre smell like?

Laine de Verre has been discontinued. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter sits well behind. Daily, leisure and office wear lead the occasions. It reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine, as the votes split almost evenly.

Citrus notes and aldehydes give it a clean, bright start. Cashmeran and musk soften this and settle it onto a woody, lightly spicy base. Aquatic and green tones keep the coolness, while the synthetic side lends a cold, glassy sheen.
