What does Unforgivable Woman (Scent Spray) smell like?

Citrus leads, with blackcurrant and orange blossom beside it. In the heart, jasmine, violet and freesia add a soft floral note, while vanilla, patchouli and amber sweeten the base and lean it towards a woody, powdery finish. Green and fruity touches run through it as well.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than announcing itself. Most voters pick spring and autumn, with daily and leisure wear ahead of the rest and office use close behind. Viktor & Rolf Antidote and Joop! Joop! Homme have a similar profile.
