What does Sublime Balkiss smell like?

Egyptian violet leaf, blackberry, blueberry, blackcurrant and bergamot lead, with the fruit kept bright by a green freshness. In the heart, lily of the valley, lilac and Damask rose add a soft floral note, while patchouli, heather and cocoa sweeten the base slightly and settle it on a woody ground.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and business are the most chosen settings. Most voters read it as feminine, though it works as a unisex scent. Sospiro Vibrato and Xerjoff Renaissance have a close profile.
