What does Floral Curiosities - Sweet William smell like?

Most voters pick fall and spring, with summer and winter further back. Leisure and daily wear lead, and evening also gets votes. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, and most voters read it as feminine. It has been discontinued.

The top opens with cinnamon, peach brandy, cumin and clove, so spice and fruit arrive together. Sweet william, sandalwood and cedarwood form the heart, giving a floral, green-tinged woodiness. Patchouli and Bourbon vanilla in the base sweeten and soften it.
