What does Almond Suede smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the small number of votes keeps that picture tentative. Evening, leisure and night-out wear lead, with daily and business use further behind. It suits men and women alike.

It opens with honeycomb absolute, bergamot, pink pepper and bitter almond. In the heart, saffron, neroli and orange blossom add a floral, spicy softness. In the base, rock sugar and vanilla absolute sweeten the scent while suede gives it a warm, leathery edge.
