What does Selection Women (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the wearer rather than filling a room. Most voters pick it for daily, leisure and business settings, and few for evening or nights out. Over half call its character feminine, with many also finding it modern.

It opens with roasted apple, lime, bergamot and nectarine, then moves to honeysuckle, jasmine and white peony in the heart. Musk, cedar and amber form a soft, woody, powdery base. The overall impression is fresh and sweet, with a creamy smoothness. s.Oliver Selection Sensual Creamy (Body Splash) and Rasasi Manal have a close profile.
