What does 18 Shades of Bigarade smell like?

Neroli and bergamot give it a bright, slightly green freshness, softened by the floral lily. It leans fruity and lightly sweet, with cedarwood adding a woody frame while musk and ambergris keep it on a creamy base. Spicy and synthetic touches stay in the background.

Voters rate its longevity as strong and its sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. Its fresh, floral build reads comfortably on both men and women. Le Labo Bigarade 18 and Evody Fleur d'Oranger have a close profile.
