What does A Kiss from a Rose smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays with you without filling the room. Most voters pick it for leisure, with business and daily wear close behind, and it also finds a place in evenings and nights out.

It opens with vegetal notes, then the heart is filled by Chinese jasmine sambac and May rose. Cypriol and white musk sit underneath, settling the floral body onto a creamy, smooth base.
