La Fede Celeste Aqua

The first spray is sharp and sunny, all grapefruit, lemon and bergamot. Soon jasmine softens it, ginger adds a gentle warmth and melon brings a cool, watery sweetness. Underneath, amber, cedar, sandalwood and patchouli build a steady base, so the scent keeps its shape long after the top notes have faded away.

This is an easy, fresh scent with enough depth to feel finished. Rated at eight to ten hours, it is made for spring and summer days. Wear it every day, to the office or out at the weekend, and to daytime events where something light and bright reads better than anything heavy. It suits a warm morning especially well.
