What does Rouge Bonheur smell like?

It opens with ginger and pepper, giving a bright, spicy start. Magnolia and rose bring a soft floral heart, and cedar with white musk settles the scent onto a clean, woody base. The sweet and oriental touches stay in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it leaves a noticeable trail without filling the room. Most voters point to leisure and daytime wear, with office use close behind. Its profile is close to Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Ginger Piccante and Les Parfums de Rosine Eloge du Vert.
