In plain words

The main accords of Light Blue Sun are citrus and coconut. It opens with Coconut Nectar and Lemon, reveals Frangipani and Jasmine at its heart, and dries down to Bourbon Vanilla and White Musk. It lasts a moderate time and projects moderately; people reach for it in summer, mostly by day.
