What does Canvas smell like?

It wears at a moderate strength with moderate projection, though those ratings come from few voters and should be read loosely. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer not far behind. Leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions it is voted for most.

It opens with pink pepper and bergamot adding a light spice and freshness to the florals. The heart is a soft, powdery bouquet of rose, mimosa, jasmine sambac and iris. In the base, vanilla, tonka bean and white musk bring a creamy sweetness, while Haitian vetiver and tobacco dry it slightly so it never turns sugary.
