What does Buontalenti smell like?

The top is built on banana, peach, apricot and red berries. In the heart, coconut and vanilla cream soften the scent while raspberry keeps the fruit going. The base of toffee, biscuit, caramel and musk leaves it sweet and creamy. The overall impression is fruity and sweet, with a slightly synthetic gloss.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters spread across all four seasons, with fall and winter slightly ahead, and it leans towards leisure and daytime wear. Most voters find it feminine, though it is presented as unisex. Simone Andreoli Glaze Ecstasy and Lattafa Eclaire Banoffi have a close profile.
