What does B. Balenciaga smell like?

The top holds lily of the valley and soy bean, the heart cedar and orris root, and the base ambrette seed and cashmere wood. Fresh, floral and green accords lead, softened by fruity and sweet touches. Underneath sits a powdery, woody base with a slightly spicy, synthetic edge.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Most read it as feminine, and some call it modern. Bond No. 9 Central Park South and Le Labo Baie Rose 26 have a close profile.
