Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

CreamyWhat does Charming Pup smell like?
It opens with orange, lemon and bergamot, a fresh citrus layer. In the heart, iris, rose and carrot seed make the floral side powdery and soft. The base of cedarwood, tonka bean and vetiver leaves a spicy, woody and creamy finish.
Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the wearer. Most voters pick spring and fall, and leisure, daily wear and the office lead the occasions. French Avenue Thunder and Mes Bisous Balle Rouge have a close profile.
