What does Sheer Veil smell like?

Most voters recommend summer and spring, while autumn and winter stay in the background. Daily wear, leisure and the office are the most picked occasions, with evening and night out far behind. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate.

The scent leans on a floral blend of rose, violet, gardenia, lavender and lily. It reads fresh and green, with a fruity sweetness and a powdery softness alongside. Adidas Floral Dream and Label Lily & Tangerine have a close profile.
