What does Basile Femme (2002) smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so those judgements are tentative. It is classed as a women's fragrance.

The opening is fresh and green, with cinnamon adding spicy warmth and mandarin orange and orange blossom bringing a fruity brightness. In the heart, rose, jasmine, tuberose and iris build the floral core. The base of patchouli, amber, musk and sandalwood turns it woody, earthy and sweetly oriental. Love, the Key to Life and Boucheron Boucheron 2012 have a close profile.
