What does Mackie (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens with pineapple, peach and raspberry, a sweet fruit start. In the heart, ylang-ylang, rose, jasmine and tuberose lead, with orange blossom and lily of the valley rounding out the bouquet. The base of vetiver, sandalwood, patchouli, musk and amber ties it together with a spicy, powdery warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind, and it is chosen most for evenings, leisure and nights out. Most see it as feminine and classic. Revlon Charlie Red and Montblanc Femme de Montblanc have a close profile.
