What does Reserve for Women smell like?

The scent reads as a whole that is fresh and floral. Freesia, rose and violet build the floral side, lotus and chamomile keep it light, and pot marigold adds a green tone. Ginger and patchouli stay in the background, while oak wood gives a soft woody floor. The accords add a creamy and slightly synthetic air. The structure is fairly simple: florals up front, clean and never heavy. Ralph Lauren Romance (Eau de Parfum) and Zara Rose have a close profile.
