What does Marron Chic smell like?

The top is bright with citrus notes, kumquat and orange blossom. In the heart, iris, violet and cocoa bring a soft, sweet, powdery feel. The base of vetiver, labdanum and benzoin settles the scent on a woody, resinous and slightly earthy ground.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night-out wear lead. Over half of voters read it as feminine, though a fair number find it masculine.
