What does French Story smell like?
Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good, so it stays on the skin for a long time and makes itself noticed around you. The number of votes is small, though, so this reads as a tendency rather than a firm verdict.
It opens with bergamot, pear and pink pepper, a fruity start with a light spiciness. In the heart, tuberose, ylang-ylang and jasmine bring the floral side forward. In the base, amber, patchouli and musk settle it into a sweet, gourmand, resinous warmth, with a synthetic, powdery air alongside. Michalsky Michalsky Berlin II for Women and Lomani AB Spirit Millionaire Premium for Women have a close profile.
