What does Veloutine smell like?

Longevity is moderate and sillage is weak, so it stays close to the skin as a soft scent. Most voters pick spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, office and daily wear. It is mostly seen as feminine.

It opens with red fruits and violet leaf, then moves into a floral heart of violet and rose. The base of salicylate, leather and musk adds some depth to the sweet, powdery structure, while a synthetic sheen keeps the freshness going. Guerlain Aqua Allegoria Flora Rosa and Jil Sander Simply (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
