What does Cashmere Mist (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick fall, winter and spring, with summer well behind. It leans towards daily, leisure and office wear, and less towards evenings or nights out. Most voters read it as feminine.

Powdery iris, ylang-ylang and Moroccan jasmine sit on a warm woody base of sandalwood, cedarwood and patchouli. Vanilla and amber add sweetness, while musk and suede give it a soft, slightly leathery feel. A fresh edge from bergamot and lily of the valley stays in the background.
