What does Spellbound (2015) smell like?

It opens with rose, apricot and lily of the valley, which give it a fruity brightness. In the heart, orange blossom, cardamom and carnation add spice to the floral core. The base of vanilla, sandalwood and amber sweetens the scent and leaves a warm, woody, oriental finish.

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, though it also works for leisure time. It reads feminine and classic. Calvin Klein Secret Obsession and Guerlain Ne m'Oubliez Pas (2015) have a close profile.
