What does Impressions de Paris smell like?

Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate, though the vote counts are small, so treat these as rough indications. Spring leads the season votes, with the other three seasons close behind. Leisure and daily wear come first among occasions, while office and evening follow not far behind.

It opens with melon, peach, mandarin orange and pineapple, a juicy, fruity freshness. In the heart, lily, jasmine, tuberose and rosebud bring the floral body. The base of vanilla, white musk, oakmoss and patchouli softens the sweetness and leaves a woody ground. Divine Divine and Charles Jourdan L'Insolent have a close profile.
