What does Goddess - Hommage à Greta Garbo smell like?

The top notes of cardamom, plum and mandarin orange give it a fruity brightness. In the heart, jasmine carries the floral side while cinnamon adds spice. The base of sandalwood and vanilla turns sweet, powdery and gourmand, with moss and ambergris keeping a chypre shade in the background.

Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. Votes spread across daytime, evening, work and leisure. Longevity is rated good, while sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin. Jasmin de Nuit by The Different Company and Widian Black II (Extrait de Parfum) have a close profile.
