What does Byzance (2016) (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn, then spring, and night-out and evening wear lead the occasions. It reads feminine and classic.

It opens with cardamom, mandarin orange and citron, a fresh, lightly spiced start softened by lily of the valley. The heart is Turkish rose, jasmine and tuberose, forming a full floral core. The base of patchouli, iris, musk, sandalwood, vanilla and amber leaves a warm, sweet, resinous finish. Dana Heaven Sent and Houbigant Essence Rare (2018) have a close profile.
