What does Rose Dunes (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens bright and lightly spiced with bergamot, violet leaf, saffron and ginger. In the heart, rose, raspberry and magnolia come forward, while geranium and lily of the valley soften the sweet floral texture. The base of vetiver, leather, oud and sandalwood gives it a warm, leathery footing.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, while summer comes last. Nights out and evenings lead, with leisure wear also common. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair number call it masculine.
