Mandarina Duck's 2004 fragrance for women, composed by Nathalie Lorson, is a bright floral at heart, with gentle hints of spice, sweetness, wood, musk and citrus.

Yellow freesia and bergamot give it a fresh, sunny start, while white pepper adds a soft, clean prickle rather than heat. The heart is a trio of pale flowers: gardenia brings a creamy richness, jasmine a warm floral glow and honeysuckle a sweet, nectar-like softness. Musk and cedar form a simple base, clean, slightly woody and close to the skin.

Most wearers report moderate longevity, with a minority finding it weak, and they agree on a moderate trail. It is voted for spring and summer and wholly for daytime wear. It suits work, weekend lunches and warm afternoons, for someone who likes a pretty, uncomplicated floral that keeps a polite distance and never feels heavy.

Mandarina Duck — unisex fragrance by Mandarina Duck (released 2004). Top notes: Bergamot, White Pepper, Yellow Freesia. Heart notes: Honeysuckle, Gardenia, Jasmine. Base notes: Cedar, Musk. — Parfica open fragrance database
