What does L'Extase smell like?
Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind. It is chosen mostly for evenings and nights out, though daytime wear is not ruled out. Longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters call it feminine and modern.
Floral, fruity and gourmand accords lead, with powdery and oriental touches softening the sweetness. Rose and white blossoms sit at the centre, while amber, Siam benzoin and musk build a warm base. Pink pepper and Virginia cedar add a light touch of spice and wood.
