What does Orchid (2016) smell like?

Orchid, vanilla and bergamot work together. The citrusy brightness of bergamot comes first, orchid adds a floral, slightly green touch, and vanilla softens the fruity sweetness. The overall impression is fresh and sweet, with a synthetic edge.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend it for spring and summer, with daily wear, leisure and the office leading the occasions. Most find it feminine, and some call it modern. Zara Yellow Velvet and Mary Kay Forever Orchid have a close profile.
