What does Pink Sugar Luxury Extract smell like?

Sicilian orange, bergamot and raspberry give a bright fruity start. Towards the heart, sugar powder, red fruits and liquorice blossom come forward, with lily of the valley softening the sweetness. In the base, caramel, vanilla and tonka bean build a creamy warmth, with musk and sandalwood sitting behind it.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage moderate. Most voters pick winter and fall, though spring and summer are not far behind. It leans towards leisure and evening wear. Pink Sugar Pink Sugar (Eau de Toilette) and Montale Lucky Candy share a close profile.
