Sitrusknus

The sun-ripened citrus opening is what got me — bright without being sharp, and it dries down into something softer from the summer blooms. I keep the bottle on my desk and one spritz in the afternoon picks me right up.

I sprayed this on before a long walk and the summer blooms note really came through once the initial sharpness faded. It lasted a solid few hours on my wrists without getting cloying.

The citrus top note hits immediately and stays bright through the dry-down, like peeling a fresh orange in warm air. I’ve had it burning for a few evenings now and the room still smells clean and summery the next morning.
