Bitter Mandarin

What it is made of, at the heart of a wearing — and the colour this page is tinted with. Wider means more of it.

Leads citrus, over powdery flowers and amber underneath. It turns over the day rather than fading, and it is among the shortest-lived things here. It carries more citrus than the rest of the catalogue.

Closest, as Akin sees it
Ranked by AKIN: the resemblance graph first, the measured accords breaking ties, the note pyramid where neither reaches. Right about half the time, and the column says which signal answered.
under $50 $50 to $120 $120 to $300 $300 to $600 over $600
Typical price for 100 ml, so different bottle sizes compare.
