CreamyWhat does Freckled and Beautiful smell like?
It opens with orange blossom, bitter orange blossom and honeysuckle, which give the floral part its light. In the heart, milk, salt and pastry push the scent towards the gourmand; the salt keeps the sweetness in check. The base of sandalwood, heliotrope and vanilla dries down creamy, powdery and warm, with a fruity touch lingering behind the sweetness. Its profile is close to Nishane Hundred Silent Ways (Extrait de Parfum) and Profumum Roma Acqua e Zucchero.
