What does Boudoir Belle / Rosa smell like?

It opens with hawthorn and aldehydes, while rose and ylang-ylang lead the heart. Musk, vanilla and benzoin settle the base into a creamy, sweet footing, with fresh and synthetic touches running through it.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn, winter and spring, with summer chosen less often. It leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out, and also suits daily and office wear. Most voters call it feminine, and some find it classic. Jardin Bohème Jasmin Imperial and LeGer Signature Wildflower have a close profile.
