What does Forbidden for Woman smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter and lean towards evenings and nights out, though it also finds a place in leisure and daily wear. It reads feminine.

It opens with almond, lemon and almond blossom. The heart of caramel, jasmine sambac and heliotrope builds a floral sweetness, and sandalwood and vanilla settle it into a creamy, gourmand base. Carrement Belle Vanille and Initio High Frequency have a close profile.
