What does La Femme Bohème smell like?

Jasmine, amber and honey form its core. Floral and sweet accords lead, weighed down by spicy and resinous tones, with a powdery and smoky side trailing behind.

Most voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good. Winter and fall take the most votes, with spring and summer well behind; evening and night out are the favoured occasions. Most voters read it as feminine.
