What does Cassis Douceur smell like?

Its longevity is rated moderate, though that view rests on only a few votes. There is not enough information on seasons, occasions or projection, so where to wear it is best judged from its character: it reads feminine.

Blackberry and blackcurrant lead the top. The heart brings lily of the valley, ylang-ylang and jasmine in a soft floral layer. In the base, Indonesian patchouli, Texas cedar, Indian sandalwood and white musk pull it toward a woody, powdery finish, with a slightly synthetic sheen and chypre and oriental touches in the accords. Carven Le Parfum and Givenchy Amarige d'Amour have a close profile.
