What does In Bloom smell like?

The top is melon and lychee, while freesia, magnolia, peony and cyclamen form a floral, garden-like centre. Musk and sandalwood in the base settle it onto a powdery, creamy, slightly woody footing, and the aquatic and fresh accords keep the whole thing airy.

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters choose it for daily wear, work and leisure, and few pick it for evenings. Its soft character suits daytime best. It has a close profile to Betty Barclay Tender Blossom and Esteban Pivoine.
