What does No 7 - Sekushi (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

Raspberry and apricot give it a bright fruit sweetness, and cotton candy carries that into a soft, gourmand feel. Lily of the valley and rosewood shape the floral side. Leather, patchouli, frankincense and musk anchor the sweetness in a spicy, woody depth.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn, spring and winter, with summer a distant fourth. It suits evenings, nights out and leisure time better than office hours. Most voters read it as feminine, though it is presented as unisex.
