Valentino Valentina Blush

Mostly sugary and rounded, closer to dessert than to fruit. Underneath that, toasted and dry, like hazelnut or almond skin.

It opens on sour cherry and pink pepper, moves through orange blossom, and settles on praline and vanilla.

• pink pepper: light rosy pepper that sparkles rather than burns
• 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.
