What does Ambre Frais pour Femme smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, though autumn and winter are not far behind. It suits daily, leisure and office wear, and half of voters call it feminine.

It opens with bergamot, Amalfi lemon and plum, with galbanum adding a green edge. The heart is soft and floral: lily, lily of the valley and African orange blossom. Vanilla, benzoin and Mexican chocolate sweeten the base, while vetiver and musk keep it woody and powdery.
