What does Very Hollywood (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, while autumn and winter trail behind. It leans towards daytime, office and leisure wear, with fewer votes for evening and nights out.

Mandarin orange and bergamot give it a bright feel, and raspberry adds sweetness. Jasmine, gardenia and ylang-ylang carry the floral part, while orris root, white moss, vetiver and amber add a soft woody depth. Avon Gold and Lalique Azalée have a close profile.
