What does Divine Decadence smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring, autumn and summer, with daily and leisure wear leading and evening not far behind. Voters mostly read it as feminine.

Bergamot and orange blossom give the opening a bright, lightly bubbly start. In the heart, hydrangea, honeysuckle and gardenia build a floral, green core. The base of vanilla, liquidambar and saffron settles into a creamy, sweet, mildly spicy softness. Aerin Tuberose Gardenia and Santa Maria Novella Rosa Gardenia have a close profile.
