What does Wicked Love smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office, and sits further back for night and evening. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair share call it masculine.

The top opens with water hyacinth, basil and green pepper, fresh, green and slightly spicy. Egyptian jasmine and Rosa centifolia add a soft floral heart, and vetiver, cedarwood and white musk settle underneath. A fruity accord runs through it. Vilhelm Parfumerie Basilico & Fellini and Estēe Lauder Modern Muse Eau de Rouge have a close profile.
