What does Swietenia smell like?

The opening keeps the citrus fresh and fruity with bergamot, green mandarin orange and bitter orange leaf. In the heart, beeswax, orange blossom and mahogany blossom add a soft floral touch, while vanilla, benzoin and cedarwood in the base sweeten it and settle it onto a woody footing.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so the scent stays close rather than filling a room. Being unisex, it suits men and women alike. Daise Oh So and Lake & Skye Citrus Blonde have a close profile.
