What does Flowerbomb La Vie en Rose smell like?

It leans towards daily and leisure wear, and some voters also choose it for the office. Longevity and sillage are moderate, though the small number of votes means these ratings are tentative. Few pick it for fall or winter.

It opens with bergamot, mandarin orange, pink pepper and tea, where citrus brightness picks up a light spicy edge. Lily of the valley, freesia and rose form a floral heart. In the base, amber and patchouli soften the sweetness and leave a powdery, fruity trail. Perfumes with a close profile include Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb La Vie en Rose 2013 and Bond No. 9 Bryant Park.
