What does Trance (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Voters find both its longevity and its sillage very strong, and although the vote count is small the direction is clear. It reads feminine and has been discontinued.
The notes read as one blend: fruity sweetness rests on a floral base, while spice and amber add a warm, resinous depth. Woody, powdery and faintly earthy sides stay in the background. Zara Tropical Emerald and Stendhal Symbiose have a close profile.
