What does In Love smell like?

It opens with currant, pink grapefruit and white peach, a fruity brightness. In the heart, honeysuckle, freesia and heliotrope add a soft floral note. Sandalwood, ambergris and musk in the base settle it into a sweet, powdery, lightly woody finish.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays close and doesn't turn heavy. Most voters pick spring and fall, with daily and leisure wear leading and the office not far behind. It is mostly seen as feminine and modern. Borghese Il Bacio and Eisenberg Diabolique have a close profile.
