PowderyWhat does Shouq / شوق smell like?
Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it leaves a soft trail close to the skin. The ratings come from a small number of voters, yet both longevity and value for money score high. It suits men and women alike.
It opens with tangerine. In the heart, lily of the valley and jasmine are softened by milk into a powdery, creamy floral. The base of musk, maltol and vanilla pushes the sweetness forward. Jean Paul Gaultier La Belle Le Parfum and Rayhaan Kiss have a close profile.
