What does Taste of Kiss smell like?

It opens with bergamot, pear and minneola tangelo, bright and juicy. In the heart, passion fruit, strawberry, black rose and vanilla orchid bring a floral, fruity sweetness. The base turns creamy and gourmand with caramel, praliné, coffee and vanilla, while patchouli and frankincense add a faintly smoky depth.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick winter and fall, and evening and night out lead the occasions. Most see it as feminine, with a sizeable share calling it modern. Armaf Signature True and La Rive Touch of Woman have a close profile.
