What does Kiss Me Intense smell like?

It opens with lemon, bitter almond and aniseed. The heart is floral, built on heliotrope, orange blossom absolute, jasmine absolute and ylang-ylang, with cinnamon and clove adding spice. The base of vanilla, musk and opoponax absolute softens everything into a creamy sweetness.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn, followed by spring and winter, and leisure and evening wear lead the occasions. About half of voters read it as feminine, though some find it masculine.
