CreamyWhat does Promenade des Anglais smell like?
Grapefruit and bergamot give it a crisp, sunny start. At the heart, violet, fig and iris take over, and the floral side turns powdery and green. In the base, vanilla brings a creamy sweetness while vetiver keeps it dry and green underneath.
Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it sits close to the skin as a comfortable, easy presence rather than a loud one. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily and business wear lead the occasions. Most see it as feminine. Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Figue-Iris and Zara Romance d'Iris have a close profile.
