What does Bespoke Parfum Collection - True Love smell like?

It opens with tarragon, mandarin orange, pink pepper and bergamot, fresh and lightly spicy. The heart is floral, with rose, jasmine and ylang-ylang sweetened by honey, and iris adds a powdery, creamy softness. The base dries to sandalwood, cashmere wood, musk and benzoin, with castoreum leaving a faint animal trace.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it is noticed up close without filling a room. It reads as suited to men and women alike. Giorgio Armani Armani Privé - Ombre & Lumière and Roja Parfums Beguiled have a close profile.
