What does Fontana di Trevi - XVIII / No. 18 smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind and summer the least chosen. It suits evenings and nights out best, though it is also worn for leisure and daily use. Most voters find it feminine and classic.

Aldehydes give a light sparkle at the start, then rose and ylang-ylang form the floral heart. The base of ambergris, vanilla, cream and white musk sweetens it into a gourmand, powdery softness, with a spicy thread running behind. Guerlain Le Bouquet de la Mariée (Extrait de Parfum) and Thameen Peregrina have a close profile.
