What does Rose Pivoine smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily and office wear. Longevity and sillage are both moderate; most voters find it feminine, though it is classed as unisex.

Bergamot, raspberry and blackcurrant give a fruity freshness at first. The heart brings Turkish rose, peony, violet and green leaves, with black pepper adding a light spice. Musk and sandalwood soften the finish. Penhaligon's Empressa and Molinard Thé Basilic have a close profile.
