WoodyWhat does Flowers Turn Purple smell like?
The top is bergamot, basil, lemon, coriander and nutmeg, which gives a bright, green first impression. Madagascan ginger, French lavender and jasmine lead the heart. Tonka bean, sandalwood and amber sweeten the base and settle it onto a woody footing.
Most voters pick summer and spring, with autumn not far behind and few choosing winter. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, though evening and business get votes too. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Masculine and feminine votes are equal, so it sits in the middle.
