La Belle Hélène

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays present without filling the room. Most voters suggest spring and fall, though summer wears it comfortably too. It is worn across daytime, office and evening settings, and most voters read it as feminine.

Aldehydes, mandarin orange, lemon blossom and pear give it a bright, fresh start. In the heart, ylang-ylang, osmanthus, mimosa and Bulgarian rose form a floral bouquet, with iris adding a powdery softness. In the base, vetiver, sandalwood, oakmoss absolute and amber turn it woody, lightly sweet and creamy, in a chypre structure.
