What does Mauboussin In Red smell like?

The opening is bright and fruity, led by blackcurrant, bergamot and red apple. In the heart, red peony and Bulgarian rose bring the floral side forward. The base of woody notes, ambrox and praliné dries down powdery, creamy and lightly gourmand.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick it for autumn and spring, with summer and winter trailing behind. It reads as an easy daytime, leisure and business scent, and evening wear is also suggested. It is classed as feminine. Ariana Grande Cloud (Eau de Parfum) and Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Dew have a close profile.
