What does Cléa (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Ylang-ylang, jasmine, rose, gardenia and lily of the valley make up the floral bouquet. Sandalwood, patchouli and vetiver ground it in a woody, earthy base, while vanilla adds sweetness and ginger a light spice. Chypre and oriental accents run through it as well.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it leans towards daily wear, with votes for business and evening too. Most voters call it feminine, and a good share find it classic. Gucci Rush and Giorgio Beverly Hills Giorgio have a close profile.
