What does Red Shoes smell like?

It opens bright and fruity with blackcurrant, grapefruit, aldehydes and red berries. In the heart, Damask rose absolute meets geranium, pink pepper and ginger, adding a green, spicy edge. The base of musk, patchouli and cashmere wood settles the scent onto a woody, sweet footing.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure and evening wear lead the occasions. Over half of voters find it feminine, with many also calling it modern. Mercedes-Benz Sign and Elizabeth Arden Untold have a close profile.
