What does Adventuress smell like?

Adventuress wears with good longevity and moderate sillage. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily and leisure wear lead the occasions, with evening and business following. Over half of voters read it as feminine.

The top is a bright mandarin orange and bergamot opening. Peach brings a sweet, fruity softness to the heart, while ginger adds a spicy edge. Sandalwood and musk carry the dry-down onto a woody, powdery base. Fresh, floral and fruity accords lead overall.
