CreamyWhat does L'Originale smell like?
It opens with citrus notes, camellia and violet. The heart brings lily of the valley, vanilla and woods, keeping the freshness while adding a spicy, sweeter edge. It settles on Indian sandalwood, musk and amber, leaving a creamy warmth.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. Most voters pick summer and spring, with daily wear and leisure the most named occasions. It reads mainly feminine and modern.
