CreamyWhat does Byzance (2020) (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
It opens fresh and fruity with bergamot, pear and neroli. The heart turns floral and powdery through freesia, rose and heliotrope. In the base, blond woods, vanilla absolute and musk close it out sweet, creamy and warmly oriental.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, though business and leisure wear also get votes. Most voters call it feminine. Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb Dew and Dolce & Gabbana The Only One (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
