What does Chinatown (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Tuberose and gardenia lead, while peach blossom and peony add a soft, fruity edge to the florals. Cardamom and spicy notes bring warmth, and woods with patchouli ground it in a woody, powdery base. The overall impression is sweet, gourmand and oriental.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and spring, then winter, with summer chosen less often. Night outs and evenings come first, with leisure close behind. Half of the voters find it feminine, though it works as a unisex scent. Godet Divinité and Balenciaga Cristobal have a close profile.
