What does Provocative for Women smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind and summer chosen least. It suits daily wear, leisure and the office, and it also earns votes for evenings and nights out.

It opens with ambrette and powdery notes. Iris and tuberose give the heart a soft floral feel. In the base, tonka bean, vanilla and sandalwood sweeten it and leave a creamy, woody finish. Valentino Valentina Poudre and Guerlain Eau de Lingerie have a close profile.
