Crisp and zesty, with sharp Sicilian lemon and green apple at first. It softens into a clean, airy floral of jasmine and ends in a light, musky, skin-close finish.

When to wear it

Wearers find it easy on summer days and in spring, and it suits the daytime and the office. The community calls it versatile, day or night.

Who it suits
