It opens light and fresh with neroli and lime. In the heart, heliotrope, jasmine, mock-orange and lilac leaf form a floral core, while vanilla and aniseed add a sweet, faintly spicy edge. The base of amber and woody notes settles into a soft, powdery warmth.
Longevity is rated moderate, though this rests on only a few votes. Its floral, fruity and sweet character reads as feminine. Penhaligon's Cornubia and Jil Sander Sensual Jil have a close profile.
