What does Lace (Concentrated Cologne) smell like?

It wears with moderate sillage and works across the year; voters lean slightly towards spring, but all four seasons sit close together. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most often. It reads feminine. Caron Nocturnes and Penhaligon's Jubilee Bouquet have a close profile.

The top pairs citrus with floral notes. The heart builds a bouquet of jasmine, rose, cyclamen, ylang-ylang, geranium and lily, with a green, powdery edge. In the base, amber, musk, vanilla and sandalwood soften and sweeten the scent, while cedarwood and moss keep a woody, chypre side.
