What does Romance smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though few people have voted, so these readings are tentative. Most voters pick spring and fall, and winter is chosen more often than summer. Leisure, daily wear, business and evening get similar shares of votes, so it isn't tied to one setting.

The opening is green and fresh, with hyacinth and galbanum up front and ylang-ylang adding a soft floral note. Jasmine and rose lead the heart. In the base, apricot, peach and raspberry sweeten it, while cedarwood, sandalwood and musk lay down a powdery, woody footing. Citrus, spice and resin stay in the background.
