What does Always smell like?

Its longevity is rated good, though that view rests on only a small number of votes. The cool, light accords keep it close to everyday wear.

It opens with kumquat, neroli and water lily, so the citrus and aquatic sides lead. In the heart, iris, pink peony and honeysuckle add a soft floral note, with a powdery accord alongside. The base of patchouli, sandalwood and ambrette seed settles it onto a woody footing. Escada Escada and Dior Miss Dior Chérie Eau de Printemps have a close profile.
