What does Fuel for Life Femme smell like?

Longevity and sillage both sit at a moderate level. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, with winter getting fewer votes. Daily wear and leisure lead the occasions, and it also works for business. Most voters read it as feminine.

Mandarin orange and pink pepper give it a bright, lightly spicy start. Toward the middle, jasmine adds a floral note and blackcurrant brings a fruity, sweet touch. In the base, patchouli and musk settle it onto a soft, woody footing. Chypre and synthetic facets run through the accords as well.
