What does Forever Red (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens with a fruity brightness from apple, French peach and pomegranate. In the heart, pot marigold, red peony and red osmanthus bring out the floral side. The base of vanilla rum, oak wood and marshmallow leans gourmand and sweet, while spicy, woody and powdery shades stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick it for evenings and nights out, with some choosing it for daily wear. It reads distinctly feminine.
