Bvlgari Splendida Magnolia Sensuel

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, creamy heady flowers like jasmine and gardenia, rich and full.

It opens on tangerine and orange blossom, moves through magnolia, orange blossom and jasmine, and settles on musk, tahitian vanilla and patchouli.

• tangerine: sweet soft citrus, rounder and less sharp than lemon
• orange blossom: the flower of the orange tree rather than the fruit: sweet, honeyed and a little green

It lasts an average amount of time and carries into a room.

Built from the note listing and the measured performance figures. We have not smelled this one.
