What does Rose Masqat smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it is worn mostly for daily life, leisure and the office, with evenings and nights out also in the mix. It reads clearly feminine.

It opens bright and fruity with orange, bergamot and grapefruit, while white melon sweetens the freshness. In the heart rose absolute leads, with saffron adding spice, violet a powdery touch and lily of the valley a light floral lift. The base settles into oud, gaiac wood and Mysore sandalwood, softened by ambergris. Fragonard Émilie and Van Cleef & Arpels Rose Velours have a close profile.
