What does Femme de Varens - Sensuelle smell like?

The top pairs liquorice with grapefruit, the heart is led by iris and rose, and patchouli and musk anchor the base. Floral and fruity accords sit alongside sweet, gourmand and spicy tones, while woody and powdery touches pull it towards a warm oriental feel.

Longevity and sillage are moderate, though few people have rated it, so that picture is tentative. It is made for women and has been discontinued. Givenchy Very Irrésistible L'Intense and Jean Paul Gaultier Ma Dame (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
