What does Ville de Francfort - Haus zum Würzgarten 1732 smell like?

The top notes, herbs and cardamom, give a fresh, lightly spicy start. In the heart, lily of the valley, rose, jasmine, iris and ylang-ylang build a floral garden feel, while vetiver, patchouli and musk lay a woody, chypre-leaning base beneath. Sweet and resinous touches soften the fresh structure.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Voters lean towards autumn and spring, and towards leisure and night-out wear. Most see it as feminine and classic. It has been discontinued. The Body Shop White Musk and Yves Rocher Cléa have a close profile.
