What does Secrète Datura smell like?

It lasts strongly and projects well. Most voters recommend spring, fall and summer, with winter trailing behind. Its use is spread from night out and evening to daily and business wear. More than half of voters call it feminine, and about a third call it classic.

Aldehydes, leaf green and lemon open it fresh and citrusy, while heliotrope adds a soft, powdery touch. In the heart, jasmine, datura, neroli and hyacinth form a floral core. In the base, vetiver, sandalwood, ambergris and musk leave a woody, slightly sweet, powdery bed. Maître Parfumeur et Gantier Soie Rouge and Rose Opulente share a close profile.
