What does Fame smell like?

Jasmine and tiger orchid lay a floral base, which apricot and honey sweeten. Saffron and frankincense add a spicy, faintly smoky depth, and belladonna rounds out the notes. Gourmand and powdery shades sit among its accords.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, though spring is not far behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, and it is worn during the day as well. It reads feminine and modern. Oakcha Celebrity and Chopard Wish (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
