What does Inspiration smell like?

Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin without crowding the room. Most voters pick spring and summer, with daily wear, work and leisure leading the occasions. In the character votes, feminine comes first, with modern behind it.

It opens on plum, mandarin orange, pomegranate and pink pepper, a fruity start with a light spicy edge. The heart of peony, tuberose and jasmine brings floral and aquatic freshness. Iris, vanilla, sandalwood and musk sweeten the base and dry it down to a soft, powdery, woody finish. Sarah Jessica Parker Covet Pure Bloom and Engelsrufer Love have a close profile.
