What does Ciel Woman smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without pushing into the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, with daily wear, leisure and the office leading the occasions. Voters mostly read its character as feminine.

Cyclamen, gardenia and violet leaf open green and airy, while water lily, peach aldehyde, jasmine and rose soften the heart into something floral. The base of amber, sandalwood, frankincense, musk and cedarwood settles it into a woody, sweet, creamy finish. Ex Nihilo Iris Porcelana and Fragonard Soleil have a close profile.
