PowderyWhat does Le Parfum (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens with orange blossom, then jasmine sambac, Jasminum grandiflorum and patchouli carry the heart. In the base, rose honey sweetens the scent while cedarwood adds a woody footing. Fruity and powdery touches sit alongside, with a faint oriental warmth in the background.
Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and fall, and it is worn by day as readily as for evenings and nights out. Most describe its character as feminine. Mango Hédonisme and Jean Paul Gaultier Ma Dame (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
