In plain words

The main accords of Rapture are white floral and amber. It opens with Orange Blossom and Citruses, reveals Jasmine and Bulgarian Rose at its heart, and dries down to Amber and Heliotrope. It lasts long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
