What does Hallucinogenic Pearl smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, with winter close behind and summer chosen least. It suits leisure, business and evening wear alike. Most voters read it as feminine, though some find it masculine.

Pink pepper, bergamot and ambrette seed keep the opening bright and mildly spicy. In the heart, iriseine, violet and iris add a powdery, floral softness. Suede, musk and blond woods dry it down to a woody, faintly leathery finish, with the sweetness staying in the background.
