What does Raving smell like?

It opens with galbanum and peach, a green freshness alongside a soft fruity sweetness. In the heart, rose, ginger and Ceylonese cinnamon bring a spicy warmth to the floral core. The base of Mysore sandalwood, vanilla and amber dries down to a powdery, creamy finish.

Most voters pick autumn and winter, though spring has a good share too. It leans towards leisure time and evenings. Longevity and sillage are both rated as good. Most voters read it as feminine, while some find a masculine side to it as well.
