Woody citrus, but umami
Quatre opens with a citrus zest. Going forward, it's a fresh aromatic citrus scent, but sweet and soapy - citrus plus fresh laundry, with a musky base. The vibe is bright, optimistic, open, accessible, and friendly, basically a gentle smile in a bottle, but with a zing. As to the downsides, you could call the the scent generic, the top might be a tad too aromatic/spicy, and the base can smell somewhat bland and powdery. The pecularity of this fragrance is an umami note, bringing egg to mind. The overall balance is good, though. At 5.6 it's very underrated.
