What does Signature Summer smell like?

Its longevity is rated moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Voters pick it mostly for daily wear, leisure and the office, with evening and night out further behind.

It opens with pink cyclamen, Italian bergamot, California grapefruit, Sicilian lemon and calla, which read fresh, green and aquatic. Lavender, heliotrope and jasmine bring a soft floral heart, and cedar, sandalwood and musk settle it into a woody, lightly sweet and powdery base. La Rive Donna and Moschino Oh! de Moschino have a close profile.
