What does Hommage à Shanghai smell like?
Voters lean towards spring first, then autumn and summer, and mostly pick daily, leisure and office wear. Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters read it as feminine.
It opens with bergamot, chamomile and nectarine, light and slightly fruity. Iris, freesia and ambrette in the heart add a floral, powdery softness. Vetiver, musk and cashmere settle into a woody, creamy base. L'Orchestre Parfum Mono Cachemire and Diptyque Fleur de Peau (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
