What does Honoré Delights smell like?

The top notes are neroli and bergamot, so it opens bright and citrusy. In the heart, ambrette, orange blossom and iris bring a soft, powdery floral character. Musk, cedar and sandalwood in the base settle it onto a woody, creamy footing, with the sweetness kept light.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, though all four seasons get similar support. It leans towards daily, leisure and business settings, and most voters read it as feminine. Chanel 1957 and Guerlain Eau de Cashmere have a close profile.
