What does Sexy Darling smell like?

Voters rate its longevity and sillage on the weak side, though the number of votes is small, so that picture is tentative. It is positioned as a feminine scent, with no clear lean towards a particular season or occasion.

It opens fruity and citrusy with pear, pink pepper and blood orange. The heart turns floral with belle de nuit flower, rose and jasmine. The base of musk, heliotrope and sandalwood settles into a soft, powdery sweetness, and the gourmand and oriental accords reinforce that sweet character.
