What does Lacura smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring, followed by fall and summer, and it leans towards leisure, work and daily wear. Half of the voters read it as feminine, though it is sold as unisex.

The top shows bergamot, pear and bitter orange, while neroli, petitgrain and jasmine give the heart a floral lift. In the base, vanillin, benzoin and caramel sweeten it, leaving a creamy, woody softness. Byredo Bal d'Afrique and Armaf Tag-Her have a close profile.
