What does Yes I Was Madly In Love, But That Was Yesterday smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is suggested mostly for nights out and evenings. Votes for feminine and masculine are almost even, so it sits between the two.

It opens with raspberry, fruity and sweet. In the heart, blond tobacco adds a spicy, smoky, woody tone. The base of black leather closes it with an animal, leathery warmth, and a gourmand sweetness runs through to the end. Louis Vuitton Ombre Nomade and Tom Ford Tuscan Leather (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
