CreamyWhat does Friction Her smell like?
The top notes of red berries, apple and peach give a bright fruit opening. In the heart, lily of the valley, jasmine and freesia add a soft floral note, while blond woods dry it slightly. The base of benzoin, vanilla and sandalwood settles it into a creamy, powdery, sweet finish.
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is worn mostly for leisure and daily use, with office wear not far behind. Most see it as feminine and modern. Its profile is close to House of Thêom Secret Maze and Glamfume White Heaven Beach.
