What does O des Soupirs smell like?

It opens with hawthorn, hyacinth and rose in a clean floral freshness. In the heart, orange blossom, Chinese peony and water lily soften that mood, and heliotrope and white musk leave a powdery, creamy finish. The overall impression is fresh and sweet, with a spicy and slightly synthetic edge.

Longevity is rated good and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and fall, and daily wear, leisure and business settings lead. It reads mostly feminine, though it is unisex. Perfumes with a close profile include Perris Monte Carlo Mimosa Tanneron and bdk Parfums 312 Saint-Honoré.
