What does Star smell like?

Most voters pick autumn and winter, with evenings and nights out leading, though it also wears easily for leisure. Both longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters read it as feminine and modern.

Fig and pineapple open it with a fruity brightness. Towards the heart, coconut milk and iris pull it in a creamy, powdery direction. In the base, vanilla, praliné, tonka bean and white amber deepen the sweetness, while Virginia cedar adds a woody balance. Lolita Lempicka (Eau de Parfum) (1997) and Lattafa Liam have a close profile.
