Marc Jacobs Lola Eau de Parfum opens with pear, pink pepper and red grapefruit, then moves into a floral heart of peony and rose; it is a fresh, sweet, powdery scent for women, and it has been discontinued.

What does Lola (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall close behind and winter well behind. Daily wear and leisure lead the occasions, though business and evening also get votes. Most voters read it as feminine. Lola Velvet Edition and Heidi Klum Shine have a close profile.

Pear, pink pepper and grapefruit give a cool, fruity start, with the pepper adding a slight spicy edge to the freshness. Peony, rose and geranium bring a soft floral heart. In the base, musk, vanilla and tonka bean sweeten the scent and dry it down powdery and warm.
