What does Orphéon (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer close behind. It leans towards daytime, leisure and office wear. Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Voters read it as feminine more often than masculine.

A fresh, green floral base carries a sweet, spicy warmth. Jasmine, rose and ylang-ylang lead the floral side, while galbanum adds green and juniper berry adds spice. Honeycomb and tonka bean bring sweetness, and cedarwood, vetiver and patchouli give a woody, creamy, powdery ground.
