What does True Woman (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Mandarin orange and orange blossom give it a bright, fruity lift. Rose, ylang-ylang, iris and orchid form the floral body, while amber carries the sweetness and a powdery warmth. A spicy touch stays in the background, and a synthetic side runs through its character.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer and winter close behind. It leans towards leisure and daily wear, and also suits evenings and nights out. Jean Paul Gaultier Classique (Eau de Toilette) and Hermès Iris Ukiyoé have a close profile.
