What does L'Imperatrice Royale smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so that reading should be taken with caution. There are no season or occasion votes, so it is hard to say much about when it suits best.

It opens with cranberry for a fruity freshness, with azalea at the heart. Virginia cedar sets a woody base underneath. The overall impression is clean and cool, with a slightly synthetic sheen. Perfumes with a close profile include Yves Rocher Moment de Bonheur L'Eau and Maison Margiela Under The Lemon Trees.
