PowderyWhat does Vendetta (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
The top holds orange blossom, water lily and hyacinth, and ylang-ylang, jasmine and rose lead the heart. In the base, myrrh, patchouli and musk pull the scent toward a woody, powdery, animal warmth. Floral and fruity accords meet sweetness within a chypre and oriental frame.
Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, while summer stays in the background. Evening and night-out wear dominate, and the office is rarely chosen. It reads feminine and classic. Chloé Chloé and Van Cleef & Arpels Van Cleef have a close profile.
