What does Sensual smell like?

It opens fresh and citrusy with grapefruit and lemon. In the heart, orange blossom and jasmine add a floral, fruity softness, and the base of oud, sandalwood and vanilla leans sweet, creamy and woody, with a spicy trace behind it.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall and spring, and evenings and nights out lead the occasions. Though unisex, most votes read it as feminine.
