PowderyWhat does Sira des Indes smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure and daily wear, with evenings also possible. Most voters read it as feminine.
The top notes of banana, pear, red berries and bergamot give a fruity sweetness, while cardamom adds spice. Ylang-ylang brings a soft floral heart. The base of musk, sandalwood, amber and vanilla turns it gourmand, woody and powdery.
