Flowerbomb La Vie en Rose 2012 for women

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, the general smell of flowers, without leaning sharp or sweet.

It opens on tangerine, tea and mandarin orange, moves through rose, freesia and lily-of-the-valley, and settles on patchouli and amber.

• tangerine: sweet soft citrus, rounder and less sharp than lemon
• tea: dry and faintly smoky, closest to a cup of black tea left to cool

It lasts an average amount of time and sits close to the skin after the first hour.

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