What does Like a Girls' Night Out smell like?

It opens with elemi resin, dragon fruit, goji berry and mandarin orange, fresh and fruity from the start. The heart turns floral and sweet with magnolia, rose, peach and mandarin orange blossom. Vetiver, musk and vanilla in the base settle it into a soft, powdery finish, with a synthetic edge.

Voters find both longevity and sillage weak. Most pick spring and summer, and leisure and daily wear lead, with office and night-out use close behind. It reads as feminine and modern. Jil Sander Style Soft and Mel Merio Romantic Girl have a close profile.
