What does Daphne Meli smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. The sample of ratings is small, so these figures are only a rough guide. It reads comfortably on both men and women.
Several lemons, yuzu and Asian pomelo form the fresh side, while jasmine and lemon blossom add a floral softness. Honey and beeswax keep the sweetness light, and fir resin and laurel bring a green, resinous tone. Sheep's wool absolute leaves a faintly animal undertone. Chypre and spicy accords hold it all on a dry line.
