CreamyWhat does Saks Fifth Avenue for Her smell like?
Jasmine and tuberose lead, and gardenia in the heart wraps them in a creamy texture. In the base, vanilla sweetens the scent while vetiver gives that sweetness a dry footing. The overall impression is fresh and powdery, with a sweet, gourmand side and a faint synthetic sheen in the background.
Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Voters pick winter, fall and spring in similar numbers, with summer chosen less often. It leans towards night out and evening wear, though it also works for leisure. Bond No. 9 New York Gardenia has a close profile.
