What does Powerful. smell like?
Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it makes itself felt without filling the room. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, while summer draws far fewer. It spreads across daily wear, leisure, evenings and nights out, and it also works at the office.
Jasmine, freesia and orange blossom carry a floral frame, with lychee and raspberry adding fruity sweetness and chocolate a gourmand softness. Cardamom brings a spicy, oriental touch, and the powdery, creamy side rounds it all off. Anfas Ishq Special and Yves Saint Laurent Black Opium (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
