What does Love's Illusions III smell like?

It reads as one piece rather than a progression: rose otto and iris draw the floral frame, peppermint adds a green freshness, and black cherry with blueberry absolute carries the sweet, fruity side. Chewing gum absolute makes that sweetness a little playful, while musk and Thai oud add depth underneath.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, so it lasts through the day and carries a few steps beyond the skin. Being unisex, it suits men and women alike. Folkwinds Love's Illusion and Cloud Illusions share a close profile.
