What does Bien Aimée smell like?

It opens with lemon, cyclamen and green leaves, a fresh, citrusy and green start. The heart is floral, with lilac, jasmine, orange blossom, ylang-ylang absolute and cassia absolute, which also bring in the spicy and creamy touches. White musk, cedar and orris absolute settle into a soft, powdery, woody base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and summer, with leisure, nights out and daily wear leading the occasions. It reads most often as feminine, though it is unisex.
