What does Perles de Lalique smell like?

Iris and Bulgarian rose lead at the top, while patchouli and Bourbon pepper in the heart add a spicy, earthy side. The base of cashmere wood and tonka bean dries down soft and powdery. The fresh floral character holds from start to finish, with a slightly synthetic sheen alongside.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer and winter not far behind. Daily wear, office and leisure lead, and evening works too. Most read it as feminine, though a fair share find it masculine. Zara Classic 6.0 and Juliette Has A Gun Metal Chypré have a close profile.
