What does Valencia smell like?

The top notes of apple, lemon and bergamot start bright and crisp. In the heart, gardenia, peony, jasmine and rose give it a floral, garden-like feel. The base of white musk, sandalwood and amber turns the scent creamy, woody and lightly oriental, while the spicy and synthetic touches stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small, so the picture is tentative. It sits comfortably on both men and women, and its balance of fresh and sweet suits everyday wear. Swiss Arabian Spirit of Valencia and Burberry Body Tender have a close profile.
