What does Le Parfum de Thérèse smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and spring, summer trails closely, and winter is the least chosen season. It is placed mostly in leisure and daily wear, with evening and business also getting votes. Voters call it feminine first, then classic.

The top opens with the cool freshness of melon and cucumber. In the heart, rose, jasmine and plum add a floral, lightly sweet fruitiness. The base of vetiver, blond leather and patchouli settles into a dry, woody ground. Armani Privé Éclat de Jasmin and Dior Diorella (Eau de Toilette) have a close profile.
