What does Charisme smell like?

Mandarin orange, pear and bergamot give a bright, fruity opening. In the heart, jasmine, orange blossom and bitter orange blossom bring out the floral side. The base of benzoin, vanilla and ambergris sweetens it and settles it into a creamy, powdery finish, with a faintly synthetic touch.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick it for daily wear, work and leisure, with evening and night out less often. It also scores high for value. Benetton Green Jasmine and Boucheron Fleurs have a close profile.
