What does My Day smell like?

The top is bright and lightly spicy, with mandarin orange, Calabrian bergamot and pink pepper, joined by orange blossom and carrot seed. In the heart, Egyptian jasmine, tuberose, ylang-ylang and orris root give it a floral, powdery face. The base settles into a creamy, woody finish of vetiver, cedarwood, tonka bean and Ceylonese sandalwood.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and autumn, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the most chosen settings. Voters mostly read it as feminine. Its profile is close to French Avenue Thunder and Prada Purple Rain.
