What does Rouge Nocturne smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated as moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring in third place. Night out and evening are the occasions chosen most often. Most see it as feminine and classic.

Amber, Turkish damask rose and Indonesian patchouli sit together in the scent. The rose carries the floral side, while amber adds sweetness and oriental warmth. The patchouli brings an earthy, woody depth, and spice and powder soften both. Alkemia Ambre II: Terrae and Prada Midnight Train have a close profile.
