What does Reckless (2011) (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters lean towards spring and fall, and it is worn mostly for leisure and daily use, though night and evening wear also get votes. It reads clearly feminine.
The top notes of mandarin orange, bergamot and orange give it a bright citrus start. Neroli, May rose and Grasse jasmine bring a soft floral heart. In the base, vanilla, musk, cinnamon and sandalwood ground it in a sweet, spicy, powdery finish. Roja Parfums Enigma (2023) (Eau de Parfum) and Roja Parfums NüWa (2015) have a close profile.
