What does Pétales de Cashmere smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, with few choosing winter. Leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions, and most voters read its character as feminine.

It opens fresh and fruity with grapefruit and mandarin orange. The heart turns floral and powdery with rose, jasmine and violet, while saffron and caraway add a spicy warmth. The base of sandalwood, frankincense and musk closes it woody and softly sweet. Vivienne Westwood Mon Boudoir and La Rive Look of Woman Pink have a close profile.
