What does Narcissus Poeticus smell like?
The top notes of bergamot, galbanum and neroli give it a bright, green start. At the heart, narcissus absolute, rose otto and tuberose lead. In the base, tonka bean, cocoa and vanilla sweeten it and add a creamy warmth.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, then fall, and it leans towards leisure and evening wear. Most see it as feminine, with a classic feel.
