CreamyWhat does Social Butterfly smell like?
It opens with lemon and mandarin orange for freshness, while apple blossom and honeysuckle add a soft floral layer. In the heart, vanilla and ylang-ylang come forward. The base of cashmere wood, musk and toffee settles into a sweet, creamy, powdery finish.
Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. It is made for both women and men and suits anyone who likes sweet, soft scents.
