What does Cantate / Cantata (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Jasmine, iris and rose open it with a floral start. Towards the heart, spices, osmanthus and cinnamon come forward and give it a warm, oriental feel. In the base, sandalwood and cedar set a woody ground, softened by tonka bean and vanilla into a powdery sweetness.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is favoured for evenings and nights out. Most see it as feminine and classic. Guerlain Samsara (Eau de Parfum) and Bogner Wood Woman have a close profile.
