What does Love's Illusion smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are tentative. Its unisex build reads comfortably on anyone, and the sweet, creamy side suggests it suits cooler weather best.

Rose otto, iris and black cherry lead the scent, while peppermint and blackcurrant add a fresh, green edge. Sandalwood and oud lay down a woody base, softened by musk and white ambergris. The citrus and spicy accords stay in the background.
