What does La Bomba Intensa smell like?

Its longevity and projection are rated as good. Most voters pick summer, spring and fall, and it leans towards leisure, daytime and evening wear, while winter gets the fewest votes.

It opens with wild berries and bergamot, a bright and fruity start. Venezuelan orchid and orange blossom bring a soft floral heart. Patchouli and red amber settle underneath, leaving a sweet, warm trail.
