What does Desire in Disguise smell like?
Its longevity and projection are rated good, and most voters find the staying power high. Votes cluster around leisure, business and daily wear, with evening and night out further behind. It reads equally well on men and women.
The opening is fresh, fruity and creamy, built on coconut, apple and musk. In the heart, white peony adds a soft floral touch and cinnamon a light spice. The base dries down sweet and gourmand with caramel and vanilla, while the fresh, floral and sweet sides of its accords stay in balance.
