What does Nuance smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage good. Voters name daytime and evening equally often, with leisure and business use close behind. It is classed as a women's fragrance.

After the floral opening, the heart brings mint, angelica and mugwort, a green, lightly spicy tone. The base of sandalwood, cedarwood, musk and vanilla dries woody, powdery and sweet, while a fruity touch softens it. Kenzo Ça Sent Beau and Emanuel Ungaro Senso have a close profile.
