What does Blue Lili smell like?
It opens with rosebud and green notes, and the heart of blackcurrant, black rose and peach adds a fruity sweetness. In the base, vetiver, ambroxan and leather dry it down into a smoky, leathery footing. Spicy and powdery touches keep the fresh feel from turning too sweet.
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters don't tie it to one moment: leisure, night out, daily and business wear all draw similar shares, so it moves easily between casual days and evenings. Chanel Bel Respiro and Balenciaga L'Essence have a close profile.
