What does Bouton de Rose smell like?

Rose, jasmine, tuberose and peony form the floral core, while cranberry adds a light fruity sweetness. Amber and musk soften the whole, and papyrus and frankincense leave a woody, slightly spicy trail. The overall feel is fresh, sweet and a little synthetic.

Longevity is rated good, while sillage is weak, so it is mostly noticed by those close to the wearer. Most voters suggest it for daily wear, leisure and the office, with evening and night out playing a smaller part. Oriflame Paradise (Eau de Parfum) and Emil Élise Choose Happiness share a close profile.
