What does Kiss Me Tender smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn, spring and winter, with summer a smaller share. It leans towards daily and leisure wear and also works in the evening. Most voters read it as feminine.

It opens with bitter almond, lemon and aniseed. In the heart, cinnamon, clove, ylang-ylang, jasmine and orange blossom make a floral, spicy mix, with heliotrope carrying the powdery side. Vanilla, musk and opoponax sweeten and soften the base. Nicolaï Kiss Me Intense and Dior Hypnotic Poison Eau Sensuelle have a close profile.
