What does Melodia smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer and winter chosen less often. It leans towards evening and nights out, with some votes for daytime and the office. Most voters call its character feminine.

It opens with clove and Bulgarian rose, spice running alongside the rose. The heart is violet, ylang-ylang and Damask rose, with the floral side carrying a powdery, fruity softness. In the base, sandalwood, Bourbon vanilla, patchouli and white musk leave a woody, earthy, sweet warmth. Jean-Louis Scherrer Nuits Indiennes and The Merchant Of Venice Noble Potion have a close profile.
