What it smells like

Lily smells rich, creamy and heady, like large white petals with a waxy, slightly spicy and green sweetness and a cool, almost powdery undertone. It feels opulent and a little dramatic, more solemn than lily of the valley. It is usually built as an accord and sits in the heart, adding a luminous, indulgent floral depth. It blends well with rose, jasmine, musk and vanilla.
