What does Almond Cucumber smell like?

It opens with cucumber, cool and watery. In the heart, almond blossom, heliotrope and mimosa add a soft, powdery floral note. The base of almond and almond wood turns it gourmand and sweet, while the fresh, aquatic and green sides keep that sweetness in check, with a slightly synthetic sheen in the background. L'Occitane en Provence Voyage en Méditerranée - Mimosa de L'Estérel and Acca Kappa Mimosa have a close profile.
