What does Dragonfly (2017) smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear, with office use close behind. Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Voters call it feminine more than anything else, though a fair number see it as masculine.

The top notes of rain water, lemon and peony give a cool opening. In the heart, iris, lotus and cherry blossom bring a soft floral side. In the base, sandalwood, musk and amber sweeten it and settle it into a powdery, woody finish, with green and fruity touches in the background.
