What does Love Potion (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It wears with moderate longevity and moderate sillage, and most voters recommend fall and winter. It leans towards leisure, evening and night-out wear, though some choose it for the office. Most voters find it feminine.

The opening of ginger, mandarin orange and rum is spicy and fruity. In the heart, white lily, vanilla and cocoa blossom bring a creamy, floral sweetness. In the base, sandalwood, chocolate and tonka bean dry it down to a powdery, oriental warmth.
