Ô de Lancôme in plain words

What it smells like, how it wears and who it suits.

What it smells like

A bright burst of lemon opens it, then basil and rosemary turn the heart green and herbal. The base is dry and mossy, with a clean, quiet woody warmth underneath.

How it wears

The perfume community finds the wear moderate, with a trail that stays fairly close. Some wearers get longer wear, while on other skin it fades sooner.

When to wear it

Wearers find it best on summer days and in spring, and it is also described as a good office scent.

Who it suits

It suits a woman who likes a clean, herbal, classic cologne feel rather than a sweet one. The green and mossy side will not appeal to all tastes.
