What does Pink Quartz (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though both ratings rest on few votes. Voters pick it most for evening and leisure, with daily wear, a night out and business close behind. It reads equally well on anyone, unisex in character.

The top opens with pink grapefruit, bergamot, ginger and saffron, while frankincense adds a resinous weight. In the heart, Damask rose and palmarosa form a floral backbone. The base of benzoin, myrrh and patchouli sweetens the scent and dries it down into an earthy, powdery, slightly smoky chypre. Zoologist Nightingale and Anna Zworykina Midwinter Moon have a close profile.
