Very Valentino Eau Toilette for women

Mostly bright and zesty, like fresh orange or lemon peel. Underneath that, dry and warm, like cedar shavings or the inside of a wooden drawer.

It opens on tarragon, magnolia and bergamot, moves through jasmine, rosemary and violet, and settles on musk, sandalowood and vanilla.

• tarragon: green aniseed herb, sharp and a little liquorice-like
• magnolia: creamy lemony flower, fresh with a soapy edge

It lasts well 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.
