What does Choose Happiness smell like?

It opens with peony, pear, lychee and bergamot, a bright, juicy fruit-floral start, while blackcurrant bud adds a slightly tart edge. The heart keeps to rose and hibiscus, with frankincense and leather casting a spicy shadow. The base of woods, amber, vanilla and musk softens and sweetens the whole.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, though autumn follows close behind. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and is also voted for evening and the office. Voters mostly call it feminine or modern, but a fair share see it as masculine.
