The top opens fruity with raspberry, pear, mandarin orange and grapefruit. In the heart, jasmine, heliotrope and red orchid carry the floral side. The base of sandalwood, musk, caramel and dry woods softens the sweetness and pulls the scent towards a gourmand, woody finish. The overall impression is sweet, fruity and floral, with a synthetic edge among the accords.
It is made for women. Viktor & Rolf Bonbon and Emir Pear Potion have a close profile.
