In plain words

The main accords of Cascade are white floral and musky. It opens with Pink Pepper and Mandarin Orange, reveals Orchid and Night Blooming Cereus at its heart, and dries down to Woody Notes and Amber. It lasts a moderate time and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, day or night.
