What does In Red (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, with few choosing winter. It leans towards leisure, work and daily wear. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters mostly read it as feminine, then modern.
The scent is fresh, citrusy and green, with a floral core. Jasmine, rose, violet and lily of the valley open it with flowers; mandarin orange, bergamot and cardamom add a fruity, spicy brightness in the heart. It dries down onto ambergris, woods and moss, which give it a woody, mossy base. Roger & Gallet Thé Vert and Penhaligon's Quercus have a close profile.
