What does Desperate Housewives Forbidden Fruit smell like?

It opens fruity and bright with peach, apple and orange blossom. The heart turns floral with lily, jasmine, wisteria and ylang-ylang, with a green edge running through. The base of cedar, vanilla, tonka bean and sandalwood sweetens it and gives it a woody footing.

Longevity is rated moderate, though only a few votes back this up. It reads as a light, youthful feminine scent. Joop! Joop! Thrill Woman and Marc Jacobs Daisy Wild have a close profile.
