What does Blondine smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays noticeable up close without filling a room. Most voters pick fall and spring, with leisure and evening wear leading. Voters most often call its character feminine.

It opens fresh, green and fruity with pear leaf and green mandarin orange. In the heart, ashoka flower and tiger lily carry the floral side while salted caramel brings sweetness. The base of cocoa, tonka bean and musk settles into a powdery, creamy finish, with castoreum adding a faint animal touch.
