What does Lethe smell like?

Lethe has moderate longevity and moderate sillage. Most voters pick autumn and spring, though winter and summer still draw a fair share. Leisure, daily wear and the office get the most votes, while evening and night out trail behind. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together, so it reads open to both.

Bergamot and lavender start it off fresh. In the heart, cedarwood, cashmere wood and water lily build a woody, powdery and lightly floral backdrop. The base of vanilla, tonka bean, musk and amber sweetens it and carries it into a creamy warmth, with a spicy touch lingering in the background.
