ChypreWhat does Yvresse (2011) smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters suggest spring and fall, with summer and winter not far behind, and it works for a night out as easily as for leisure time. Most voters read it as feminine, and some as classic.
Mandarin orange and lychee open it with a fresh, fruity sweetness. Rose and violet at the heart bring a soft, powdery floral feel. Patchouli at the base adds a woody, chypre depth, with spicy and sweet tones rounding it out. Dior Midnight Poison and Givenchy Dahlia Noir have a close profile.
