What does Saudade smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters place it in nights out and evenings, with daily wear and leisure time close behind.

It opens on caramel custard, with jasmine, pear and white chocolate at the heart. Musk, ambrox and vanilla in the base soften the sweetness into something warm and rounded. Jimmy Bodin Colonie de Vacances and Jean Paul Gaultier La Belle Le Parfum have a close profile.
