What does Naughty Alice smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring and fall, with summer and winter further back. Daily wear, leisure and the office lead the occasions, while evenings and nights out still get a fair share. Most voters call it feminine, and some see it as modern.

Ylang-ylang and black rose form the floral core, violet adds a soft powdery edge, and musk wraps it all against the skin. Freshness and sweetness sit side by side, and the gourmand touch reads as a light creaminess rather than heavy candy.
