ResinousWhat does Coromandel (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with very few choosing summer. Evening and night out lead the occasion votes, while daily and office wear sit further back. Feminine tops the character votes, though a fair share call it masculine.
It opens with neroli, bitter orange and citrus fruits, a light brightness. In the heart, patchouli, orris root, jasmine and rose build a floral, powdery core. The base of white chocolate, vanilla, benzoin and frankincense sweetens it and leaves it creamy, earthy and warm.
