What does Scherzo (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens with a fruity freshness from davana and tangerine. In the heart, black rose, peony and yellow narcissus carry the floral side, while frankincense adds a spicy touch. As it dries, patchouli, oud and vanilla come forward, and the oriental, sweet side takes over.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters suggest fall, spring and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. The largest share of voters finds it feminine, though it is presented as unisex. Benefit My Place or Yours Gina and Fenty Fenty (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
