What does French Cancan (2017) (Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Voters clearly read it as a feminine scent. There are no season or occasion votes, so little can be said about where it fits best.

It opens with jasmine and violet, and orange blossom and May rose carry the floral line through the heart. Sandalwood and ambergris soften the base, while spicy, oriental and slightly leathery touches add depth to the powdery sweetness. Loewe Un Paseo por Madrid - Ópera en el Teatro Real and Marlou Carnicure / L'Animal Sauvage have a close profile.
