Serendipity 3 · 2005

Citrus · Fruity · Sweet

Serendipity 3 Serendipitous is a sweet, gourmand women's fragrance built around Tahitian vanilla, cocoa and blood orange. Its longevity is moderate and its sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, while summer gets a small share. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office, and its character reads mostly feminine. Blood orange brings a citrusy, fruity brightness, and cocoa and vanilla settle it onto a sweet, creamy, powdery base. A spicy, oriental warmth stays in the background. The notes don't unfold in stages; the scent reads as one sweet whole from start to finish. Its profile is close to The Dua Brand Marshmallow Vanilla and Kyse Perfumes Cacao Noisette.
