It’s not citrusy at all; it’s super soft and almost imperceptible at first until it develops. I can definitely detect geranium, maybe some violet leaves? Then iris and leather come through. I’m still confused by the base notes, I need to train my nose. Medium-low longevity, soft sillage, perfect for daytime and very versatile. I like it.
