What does B. Balenciaga Skin smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and work are the settings named most often. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. In the character votes, feminine leads, with modern in second place. It has been discontinued.

The top holds green tea, bergamot, lily of the valley and soy bean, and the heart brings orris concrete, peony and violet leaf absolute. The base of vetiver, cashmere wood, cedarwood and ambrette seed absolute settles into a woody, creamy finish. Fresh and green tones are balanced by sweetness, with a synthetic edge showing through.
