What does Exquisite Affair smell like?
It opens with bergamot, mandarin orange and pink pepper, a bright start with a light spicy edge. In the heart, peach and blackcurrant bring the fruit forward, while osmanthus and cinnamon add a floral, spicy warmth. The base turns creamy and sugary with vanilla, caramel and cotton candy, and leather, sandalwood and patchouli temper that sweetness with woody, leathery and slightly smoky tones. The overall character is sweet and warm, with a synthetic touch in the accords. Aigner Aigner Black for Women and Hedonik Obsessive Devotion have a close profile.
