From your scent profile
Estēe Lauder Adventurous is a sweet, woody floral for women that sets mandarin orange and red berries against a heart of ylang-ylang, jasmine and frangipani.
Skunky's take: Floral accords up front; keep it from the bees.

What does Adventurous smell like?
It opens light and fruity with red berries, leaves and mandarin orange. The heart turns into a floral garden of ylang-ylang, lotus, heliotrope, star jasmine, tagetes and frangipani. The base rests on vetiver, woods and patchouli, softened and sweetened by honey and musk. Floral, sweet and woody accords define the overall character. Stone & Wit Candelere and Lili Bermuda Frangipanni have a close profile.
