What does Iles d'Or (2007) smell like?

It opens with mirabelle plum, pepper, lime and freesia, which give a fresh, fruity and lightly spicy start. In the heart, jasmine, amber, sandalwood and cedarwood settle the scent onto a woody, powdery base. The finish is sweet, creamy and gourmand, built on musk, vanilla, praliné and nougat.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage moderate, though the small number of ratings means these figures are only a rough guide. It reads feminine, and its sweet, spicy build suits cooler days. Those looking for a close profile could also try Molinard Tendre Friandise and Penhaligon's Cornubia.
