What does Carita (2012) smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Voters lean towards spring first and autumn second, and name daily wear, leisure and business as the main settings. Most call its character feminine, with the rest saying modern or classic.

It opens with rosebud, bergamot and Paradisone® for a bright start. In the heart, violet, iris, heliotrope and rose add a soft, powdery floral layer. The base of musk, amber and vanilla closes it creamy and sweet. Harry Lehmann Hyazinthe and L'Erbolario Iris have a close profile.
