What does La Vie de Bohème smell like?

Its longevity is rated weak and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear and leisure, with business use also possible.

It opens with berries, dragon fruit, pear and Turkish rose, giving a bright, juicy fruit impression. Peony carries the floral heart. In the base, vanilla, musk, sandalwood and woody notes soften everything into a powdery sweetness. Marc Jacobs Oh, Lola! and Marc Jacobs Lola (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
