What does Jade Dragon smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily, business and leisure wear lead the occasions. Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays close to the skin without filling a room. It was released as a men's fragrance and voters mostly find it masculine, though a fair share read it as feminine. It has been discontinued.

Bergamot gives a fresh citrus start and jasmine carries the floral side. Tea adds a green, slightly dry touch, while vetiver sets a woody base. The spicy accord stays in the background, and the whole blend reads clean and airy.
