What does Beautiful Day L'Original / Beautiful Day smell like?

Bitter orange and orange blossom give the scent a bright, slightly bitter citrus-floral lift. Lily of the valley and heliotrope push the florals in a powdery direction. Vanilla, tonka bean and musk sweeten it into a soft, creamy gourmand feel, with green almond adding a gentle nutty edge.

Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate, though the sample is small. It reads as a feminine perfume with a soft, sweet character. Perfumes with a close profile include Profumum Roma Meringa and Nihan Nihan (Eau de Parfum).
