What does Belara (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top notes are blue lotus, fig, pittosporum blossom and blueberry, giving a fresh, watery and lightly fruity start. The heart brings acacia, tuberose, anemone, lily and chamomile into a floral body, with a sweet, powdery side alongside. The base of white poplar bark, sandalwood and musk leaves a soft, woody ground.

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate, though the number of votes is small, so treat that as tentative. Its light floral build suits easy everyday wear, and it reads clearly feminine. Its profile is close to David Beckham Intimately Women and Dolce & Gabbana 18 La Lune.
