What does 5th Avenue NYC Only smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, though the small number of votes makes that a rough guide. It reads as a feminine scent.

It opens with mandarin orange, Italian bergamot and pink pepper, with blackcurrant adding a fruity edge to that fresh start. The heart brings peony, magnolia, plum and mimosa together as a floral whole. The base of white amber, orris root and sandalwood settles into a soft, woody finish. Laura Biagiotti Aqua di Roma and Chloé Chloé (2009) have a close profile.
