What does Venetian Violet Flower Water smell like?

It opens with raspberry, mandarin orange and lychee, a bright, sweet fruit start. In the heart, Italian violet, peach and white peony add a soft floral touch. The base of iris, cedarwood and musk settles it onto a powdery, creamy ground, while the citrus and sweet accords leave a light gourmand tone.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though with few votes this is only a hint. Its light build suits everyday wear. Lattafa Hayaati Florence and H&M Pink Dawn have a close profile.
