What does Lakmé (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The top pairs citrus notes with aldehydes for a bright start. The heart of rose, magnolia, peach and lily of the valley turns floral with a soft fruity edge. In the base, frankincense, oud and vanilla lead, while musk, sandalwood and benzoin pull it towards a creamy, sweet warmth.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, followed by fall and winter, and it leans towards leisure, evening and night-out wear. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair number call it classic. Its profile is close to Roja Parfums Enigma Aoud and Stendhal Elixir Blanc.
