ResinousWhat does Vermillion Promise smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters suggest autumn and winter, with spring not far behind. It leans towards night outs, evenings and leisure time. Voters read it as more feminine, though some find it masculine.
The top notes of bergamot, yuzu and apple open fresh, with rum adding warmth. In the heart, jasmine absolute, lily and iris form a floral layer, while clove brings spice. The base of honey, benzoin and labdanum absolute dries down sweet, resinous and softly woody. Morph Arles and Bois 1920 Astratto have a close profile.
