Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.

What does Saharienne (2015) smell like?
It opens bright and slightly sharp with bergamot, petitgrain and pink pepper. At the heart, clary sage, jasmine sambac and neroli add a soft floral note with a powdery feel. Vetiver, patchouli and musk dry down into a simple, woody and green finish.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and business are the occasions named most often. Votes lean somewhat feminine, though a fair share call it masculine. Celine Parade and Diana Vreeland Vivaciously Bold have a close profile.
