What does Venus de Milo smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Voters spread it almost evenly across evening, night out, leisure and daily wear, with business use not far behind. Its unisex character suits men and women alike.

The top pairs the brightness of citrus with fruity pear and sweet caramel. In the heart, lily of the valley, jasmine and white blossoms take on a milky softness. The base of bourbon vanilla, musk, ambroxan and benzoin leaves a creamy, powdery, gourmand trail.
