What does Paris Premières Roses 2012 smell like?

It opens with orange blossom, violet and wild rose, while citrus and green accents keep it light and lively. In the heart, May rose, lily of the valley and peony carry the floral theme, adding a soft fruity, sweet touch. White musk and sandalwood in the base settle it into a calm, powdery finish.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. The number of ratings is small, so these values are only a rough guide. It is positioned as a feminine scent. Yves Saint Laurent Paris Roses Enchantées and Paris Roses des Bois have a close profile.
