What does Oceanus smell like?

It opens with water lily, giving a cool, green first impression. In the heart, rose, geranium, jasmine, violet and lily of the valley form a floral bouquet, with sweetness staying in the background. Musk and sandalwood in the base soften the scent and leave a faintly woody ground.

Longevity is weak and sillage moderate. Most voters pick summer and spring, and it suits daily wear, leisure, sport and the office. Most voters read it as feminine, though it works as a unisex scent too. Calvin Klein Escape and Floris Fleur have a close profile.
