PowderyWhat does Bijan Black for Women smell like?
It opens with jasmine, pomegranate and bergamot, so fruit and flowers lead from the first spray. Gardenia and rose deepen the floral heart. In the base, tonka bean, musk and sandalwood sweeten it and pull it towards a powdery, woody warmth, with a light spicy touch completing the oriental feel.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn, followed by spring and summer, and occasions are spread evenly from daily wear to business and evenings out. The perfume has been discontinued. Gloria Vanderbilt Honeymoon and Delle Grazie Paris Rouge have a close profile.
