What does Beige (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The notes are freesia, honey, hawthorn and frangipani. Freesia and hawthorn give it a light, open floral character, while honey and frangipani sweeten it and push it towards a creamy softness. The powdery side runs through the whole scent as a calm, even layer.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often. Half of voters read it as feminine, though it is sold as unisex. Narciso Rodriguez For Her Forever and Chabaud Nectar de Fleurs have a close profile.
