What does Lyric Woman (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens with ginger, cinnamon and cardamom giving a spicy warmth, lifted slightly by bergamot. In the heart, rose, jasmine sambac, ylang-ylang and iris build a floral core. The base is led by frankincense, sandalwood, vanilla and patchouli, and the scent turns sweeter, settling into a powdery, smoky warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening and night out lead the occasions. Most voters read it as feminine. Guerlain Samsara (Eau de Parfum) and John Galliano John Galliano (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
