What does Monoï Vague d'Été smell like?

Most voters pick summer, then spring, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear, with some office use too. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair number call it modern.

It opens with tiaré, floral and fresh. In the heart, ylang-ylang carries the floral side on, and vanilla in the base sweetens it into a creamy, powdery softness. The gourmand touch stays in the background. Yves Rocher Monoï Eau des Vahinés and Gucci A Chant for the Nymph have a close profile.
