The scent smells like a cold, refreshing, and citrusy mint tea. For summer, it's a 10 out of 10. In the opening, you first perceive the lemon and mint, but it changes over time, and you smell herbal tea and a bit of mint in the dry down. In my opinion, it's the best summer fragrance there is. Just imagine walking on a warm summer day on the beach in Italy. You smell the water, the lemon from your iced tea, and the beautiful fresh air with a hint of mint. It couldn't be described better, yet "trying is better than studying" ;) I tested the longevity at home, and it really lasts 11 hours on my skin. I could even still perceive it lightly the next morning. So for a summer fragrance, that's truly exceptional. I haven't tested the sillage yet as I wouldn't wear it outside in winter. But maybe there will be an update soon :)
