What does Mélodie de Orientica smell like?

The top holds neroli, petitgrain, red fruits and bergamot, so it starts fresh and floral. In the heart, jasmine, rose and orange blossom are spiced with cinnamon and cardamom. The base of praliné, vanilla, musk and marshmallow leaves it soft and sweet.

Voters rate its longevity and sillage as good, though the number of votes is small. With its fresh floral start and sweet, spicy body, it reads as suited to both men and women. Penhaligon's Castile and My Geisha Musk have a close profile.
