What does Blv II smell like?

The opening is fresh and slightly spicy, with star anise, violet, mandarin orange and liquorice together. In the heart, iris, jasmine and lily of the valley add a soft floral touch, while vetiver and patchouli give it a woody footing. Benzoin and ambergris in the base sweeten it and leave a powdery finish.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and work are the most chosen settings. Most voters call it feminine. Lacoste Inspiration and Dorall Collection Gaze for Women have a close profile.
