What does Devil Tender smell like?

It lasts well and projects moderately. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is chosen for leisure, daily wear and the office. It reads mainly feminine, though a fair number of voters call it modern or classic.

It opens with peach juice and pink grapefruit for a fruity freshness, with pink pepper adding a light spice. The heart of peony, Bulgarian rose and rose water gives a green, powdery floral character. Suede, sandalwood and white cedar settle into a creamy, slightly leathery, woody base. Histoires de Parfums Vert Pivoine and Téo Cabanel Early Roses have a close profile.
