ChypreWhat does Possess (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are rated as good, though the small number of votes means these ratings are only a rough guide. The pronounced sweetness and soft texture suit everyday wear as well as more dressed-up evenings.
It opens with grapefruit, freesia and pineapple, a fresh and juicy start. At the heart, ylang-ylang, raspberry and orange blossom build a sweet, floral body. The base of Ceylonese sandalwood, Bourbon vanilla and Madagascan patchouli leaves a creamy, woody trail with a hint of chypre. Fragrance Du Bois Oud Jaune Intense and The 7 Virtues Vanilla Woods have a close profile.
