What does Libre L'Absolu Platine smell like?

It opens with Calabrian mandarin orange, Calabrian bergamot and white lavender. The heart brings Provençal lavender, French lavender and Morrocan orange blossom. Bourbon vanilla, heliotrope and ambergris close it with a powdery, creamy sweetness, while the spicy touch stays behind the freshness.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and spring, though winter and summer still draw a fair share. It is worn from daily use and the office to evenings out. Voters mostly find it feminine, and some call it modern. Yves Saint Laurent Libre (Eau de Parfum) and Diesel D have a close profile.
