What does Florissa smell like?

Its longevity and sillage both rate as good, though the number of votes is small, so these figures are only a rough guide. Florissa has been discontinued.

It opens with green notes, then moves into a floral heart led by iris and rose. In the base, amber, woods, spices and oakmoss give it an earthy, leathery, slightly resinous footing, while citrus and sweetness stay in the background. Caron French Cancan and Léonard Tamango have a close profile.
