What does Vocalise / ヴォカリーズ (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Most voters recommend it for spring and summer, while winter trails far behind. Daily wear, business and leisure come first, with evening and night out chosen less often. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, and most voters read it as feminine.

The scent is fresh, floral and fruity, with a powdery, woody undertone. Neroli, yuzu and peach bring the brightness, while red rose and lily of the valley build the floral core. Hinoki cypress adds a woody line, and vanilla softens the whole.
