What does L.12.12 Rose Eau Intense smell like?

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though the small number of votes means these figures give only a rough picture. It is described as a women's perfume, and its fresh character sits close to everyday wear.

Mandarin orange and white tea give the opening a bright feel, with Sichuan pepper sharpening it slightly. In the heart, rose, cotton flower and iris come forward and add a powdery softness. Sandalwood, musk and cedar settle into a calm, woody base. Guerlain Eau de Cashmere and Benamôr Iris Suprema share a similar profile.
