What does Girl of Now Rose Petal smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without filling a room. Voters pick it mostly for daily wear, leisure and the office, and far less for evenings or nights out.

It opens with mandarin orange, Sichuan pepper and pink peach, where the citrus brightness is rounded off by the peach. Magnolia and rose lead the heart, and white musk with blond woods settles the dry-down into a powdery, lightly woody base. Kenzo Flower in the Air and Fragonard Maman Cherie have a close profile.
