What does Pretty (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate, so it neither dominates a room nor disappears quickly. Most voters pick spring, followed by summer. It is chosen far more for daytime and work than for evenings or nights out. Voters call its character feminine and modern.

The top notes of peach nectar, mandarine and orange blossom give a citrusy, fruity freshness. In the heart, jasmine, iris and white peony add a floral, powdery softness. In the base, musk, amber and jacaranda wood close it on a sweet, warm trail.
