PowderyWhat does Apparition (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It offers moderate longevity and sillage. Most voters pick spring and autumn, with summer and winter further behind. Daily and leisure wear lead, and it also works for evenings. Voters mostly read it as feminine.
It opens with cayenne pepper and raspberry liqueur, a spicy warmth under boozy fruit. Passion flower and rose give the heart a soft floral feel, and heliotrope and patchouli settle into a powdery, slightly earthy base. Guerlain La Petite Robe Noire and Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb have a close profile.
