What does Rêve smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, while winter is the least chosen. It leans towards daytime, office and leisure wear, with evenings less favoured. Most voters read it as feminine, and some as modern.

It opens with pear and neroli, a fresh, citrusy start. In the heart, osmanthus, lily and peony bring a floral, lightly fruity feel. Amber and sandalwood in the base sweeten it and settle it onto a woody, powdery ground.
