What does Sweet Darling smell like?
The top notes of passion fruit, bergamot and osmanthus give it a fruity freshness. In the heart, freesia, cotton candy and boronia bring out a sweet floral side. The base of patchouli, sandalwood and vanilla settles it into a woody, powdery, oriental warmth.
Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays fairly close to the skin. It suits those who like soft, sweet, feminine scents. Kylie Minogue Darling (Eau de Toilette) and Chopard Mira-Baï have a close profile.
