What does Romantina smell like?

It opens with Turkish rose and bergamot. At the heart, tuberose, orange blossom and iris build a floral body, while patchouli and vetiver add a woody weight beneath. The base of vanilla, tonka bean and white musk sweetens the scent and closes it in a powdery softness, with the spicy and synthetic touches staying in the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring, followed by fall and summer, and it leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Most votes read it as feminine, and some call it modern. Lalique Encre Noire pour Elle and Zara Classic 6.0 have a close profile.
