What does Stilettos on Lex smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn not far behind. Daily wear, leisure and office lead the occasions, while evening and night out draw fewer votes. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters read it as feminine. Escada Loving Bouquet and Ineke After My Own Heart have a close profile.

It opens with plum liqueur, lemon and pear for a fruity brightness. The heart brings iris, heliotrope, rose absolute, violet leaf and lily of the valley, floral and powdery. It dries down to Indonesian patchouli, musk, Bourbon vanilla and Atlas cedar, which add a woody warmth.
