What does Le Bolshoï Saison 2012 La Traviata smell like?
The top holds bitter orange, bergamot, petitgrain and neroli, while ylang-ylang, jasmine, violet and orange blossom form a floral heart. The base of vanilla, white musk, frankincense and tonka bean settles it into a sweet, powdery, creamy ground, with a faint animal trace behind.
Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it stays soft and close to the skin. It is made for women. Guerlain Les Secrets de Sophie and Guerlain Le Bolshoï 2011 Edition Limitée have a close profile.
