What does Topaz smell like?

Topaz lasts very strongly on skin. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring in third place and summer well behind. It is positioned as a women's fragrance.

It opens citrusy, fruity and slightly green with blackcurrant, bergamot and kiwi. The heart turns floral and powdery with violet, lily of the valley, jasmine and rose. The base of oud, vanilla, musk, patchouli and gaiac wood makes it sweet, woody and a little smoky, in an oriental vein. Laura Biagiotti Roma (Eau de Toilette) and Dsquared² Potion for Woman have a close profile.
