What does Into the Gourmand - Number 2: Splendid Bronze smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters lean towards autumn and spring, with summer not far behind, and pick it mostly for daily wear and leisure time, though it also works in the evening.

The scent pairs a floral side with a gourmand one. Jasmine, orchid and orange blossom form the floral base, while vanilla pulls it in a creamy, sweet direction. Heliotrope adds a powdery softness and cashmere wood gives it a warm, woody finish. It reads oriental and slightly synthetic. Zara Dark Romance and Sol de Janeiro Sol Cheirosa '62 have a close profile.
