What does Serpent Bohème smell like?

It opens with blackcurrant and mandarin orange, which give a fruity brightness. In the heart, jasmine sambac, desert rose and Turkish rose build a floral texture. The base of cistus, sandalwood, white musk and patchouli settles the scent on a woody, sweet footing.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close without crowding the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, and mainly choose it for business, leisure and daily wear. Its character is mostly seen as feminine. Lanvin Éclat de Fleurs and Roberto Cavalli Florence Blossom have a close profile.
