What does Dandelion Fig smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn well behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the most named settings. Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, and masculine and feminine votes sit close together, so it wears easily on either.

It opens with lemon grass and dandelion leaf, a sharp, citrusy greenness. In the heart, juniper and tomato vine add an earthy, lightly spicy tone. Fig closes it in the base with a soft, fruity note. Floral and woody touches sit among the accords. Jil Sander Pure Man and Annayake Omizu for Him have a close profile.
