What does Extravagante smell like?

It opens with geranium and vervain, green and lightly spicy. The heart brings tuberose, rose and jasmine, full-bodied but held in check by the green tones. In the base, vetiver, patchouli and moss settle the scent into something earthy, woody and slightly resinous.

Longevity and projection are rated good, though only a small number of votes stand behind that. Most voters suggest fall and winter, with spring not far behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, yet suits daytime too. Its profile is close to Clinique Aromatics Elixir and Pygmalión Alfa.
