What does London for Women smell like?

Honeysuckle and English garden rose come first, followed by peony, tiaré, clementine peel and jasmine. The clementine peel adds a fruity brightness to the flowers. Patchouli, sandalwood and musk set the scent on a woody, powdery base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and daily wear, work and leisure lead the occasions. It reads mostly feminine. Perfumes with a close profile include Yves Saint Laurent Paris Eau de Printemps 2009 and L'Arc Balade - Tiaré de Tahiti.
