What does Pour Femme (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top pairs pimento with purple freesia. In the heart, heliotrope, hibiscus, Bulgarian rose and Persian jasmine form a floral core. The base of frankincense, Himalayan cedar and Mysore sandalwood turns woody and powdery, while the sensual skin accord adds a creamy warmth.

Longevity and sillage are rated moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall close behind. Daily wear, office and leisure lead the occasions. Most voters call it feminine, with some also finding it modern or classic.
