PowderyWhat does Loulou (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters recommend fall and winter, and evening and night out are the occasions it leans towards. It reads clearly feminine.
The top notes set cinnamon, aniseed, jasmine and violet side by side, so spice mixes with flowers. In the heart, tuberose, ylang-ylang and orange blossom deepen the floral side. In the base, vanilla, benzoin and sandalwood sweeten it and leave a powdery, oriental warmth. Elizabeth Arden Red Door (Eau de Toilette) and Christian Lacroix C'est la vie! (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
