What does Art Foundation smell like?
Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear and the office lead the occasions. It has been discontinued, and it reads as a feminine scent.
The top brings apricot, silk tree blossom and osmanthus, floral and fruity at once. Lipstick and rice powder in the heart add a soft, powdery feel. In the base, milk, white musk and sandalwood settle it into a creamy, sweet finish. Hugo Boss The Scent for Her (Eau de Parfum) and Molinard Osmanthus have a close profile.
