What does Idôle smell like?

The top is Italian bergamot, pink pepper and pear, which reads bright and lightly fruity. In the heart, Turkish rose and jasmine take over, giving the scent a floral, powdery character. Bourbon vanilla softens the base, while cedar and patchouli keep a dry layer underneath.

Voters rate both longevity and sillage as good. Most pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office come up most often. The majority describe it as feminine and modern.
