What does So Scandal! smell like?

Jasmine sambac and tuberose lead, with orange blossom alongside them. Raspberry adds a fruity sweetness, while milk brings a creamy, gourmand softness. With a slightly synthetic sheen, the whole reads as floral and sugary.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good. It is chosen most in spring and fall, for leisure and for nights out, and most voters find it feminine. Pendora Scents Solitude Candy and Emper So Genius have a close profile.
