What does Venom of Love (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and night out and evening lead the occasions. Feminine leads the character votes, with modern and masculine votes also present in meaningful numbers.

It opens with cherry liqueur and bitter almond; the heart brings Turkish rose absolute, chocolate, Egyptian jasmine absolute and cherry. In the base, vanilla, almond cream and amberwood close it with a creamy, woody sweetness, while fruity and spicy touches stay in the background. Initio Blessed Baraka and Amouage Guidance 46 have a close profile.
