What does Mad Madame smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it suits evenings and nights out; it reads feminine to most, though some find it classic or masculine.

It opens with rose oxide, blackcurrant bud absolute and ambroxan. Tuberose and patchouli carry the heart, and vanilla and white musk sweeten and soften the base. Spicy, woody and earthy accords stay in the background behind the floral and sweet character. Juliette Has A Gun Lady Vengeance and Juliette Has A Gun Vengeance Extrême have a close profile.
