What does Fleur de Louis smell like?

It opens fresh and green with bergamot, neroli and galbanum. The heart turns softly floral with jasmine absolute, orange blossom and rose water, while clove adds a faint spice to the sweetness. Vetiver, Florentine iris and cedarwood settle underneath, giving the scent a woody, powdery base.

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and daily wear and the office lead the occasions. In character votes feminine comes first, with masculine and classic close behind. Prada Purple Rain and Diptyque Orphéon (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
