What does Number 3: Lilas Japonika smell like?

Lilac sits at the centre, while pear adds a fruity brightness. Sandalwood stays in the background and softens the sweetness with a creamy feel. A fresh, green mood dominates throughout.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so the scent is mostly noticed up close. Voters pick it most for work, followed by daily wear and leisure, and fewer choose it for evenings. It has been discontinued. Zoologist Hummingbird and Miller Harris Rose Silence have a close profile.
