What does Mauboussin pour Elle smell like?

It opens with red fruits, rhubarb and orange blossom, giving a fresh, fruity start. At the heart, rosa centifolia, jasmine and gardenia bring the floral side forward. In the base, caramel, sandalwood and amber sweeten the scent and settle it into a woody, powdery finish.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and autumn, with summer and winter slightly behind; daily wear, leisure and business settings lead the occasions. Most voters find it feminine. Estēe Lauder Azurēe Soleil and Viktor & Rolf Bonbon (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
