What does Tuca Tuca (Perfume) smell like?

It opens with the fruity sweetness of blackcurrant. In the heart, ylang-ylang and vanilla carry that sweetness into a creamy, floral gourmand mood. The base of violet leaf and vetiver settles it onto an earthy, woody and slightly smoky ground, with spicy and powdery touches in the background.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall, then winter, and leisure, evening and night out lead the occasions. Most see it as feminine. It has been discontinued. Its profile is close to Tom Ford Black Orchid and Lancôme Hypnôse.
