What does Bouche Baie smell like?

It opens with passion fruit, red currant and blackberry, with blackcurrant rounding out the fruit. In the heart, nectarine, orange blossom and jasmine bring a soft floral side. The base of coconut milk, honey and almond turns it gourmand, while raspberry keeps the fruit going.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening or a night out, and the feminine character leads the votes. Van Cleef & Arpels Oriens and Nicolaï Kiss Me Tender have a close profile.
