What does Secret of Beauty smell like?
It opens with apple, blackcurrant and plum, giving a fruity sweetness that vanilla and cinnamon soften and warm with spice. In the heart, jasmine brings the floral side forward while thyme leaves a faint herbal note. The base of cedarwood, sandalwood and olive tree settles into a woody, powdery finish.
Longevity and sillage are moderate, so it leaves a quiet trail. Most voters pick it for daily wear and leisure, with business settings also well represented. Evening and night-out votes are fewer.
