What does Monkeyflower smell like?

Most voters pick it for spring and summer, and it is chosen for leisure, daily wear and the office. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Modern and feminine are the leading character votes, with a smaller share calling it masculine.

It opens with suntan lotion and coltsfoot, then moves into a heart of fig, buttercup, Cape gooseberry and chamomile. Hay and musk soften the base. The overall impression is fresh, green and fruity, with a creamy side and a slightly synthetic edge.
