6.6

Serge Normant · 2012

Floral · Sweet · Synthetic

Serge Normant Avah is a sweet, floral women's fragrance that sets amber, ylang-ylang and jasmine over soft woods and musk. Avah is chosen mostly for fall and winter, with spring following and summer well behind. Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin rather than filling a room. The floral accord leads: ylang-ylang and jasmine sit on a sweet base. Amber and soft woods add an oriental, woody warmth, while musk leaves a powdery softness. Spicy and faintly smoky shades stay in the background. Jōvan White Musk for Women and Montale Intense Roses Musk have a close profile.
