WoodyWhat does The Scent of Peace (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. The largest share of voters finds it feminine, though it is presented as unisex.
Grapefruit and blackcurrant in the top give a citrusy, fruity brightness. In the heart, lily of the valley and hedione add a soft floral touch. Musk and cedarwood in the base settle into a sweet, woody ground. Viktor & Rolf Bonbon Spring Summer 2017 and Miu Miu L'Eau Rosée (2018) have a close profile.
