Gianfranco Ferré In The Mood For Love is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2009, created by Maurice Roucel. In The Mood For Love opens with Bergamot, Bitter Orange, Magnolia, and Tamarind, settles into a heart of Orange Blossom, Cedar, Rose, and Jasmine, and dries down to a base of Woody, Musk, Amber, and Sandalwood. Gianfranco Ferré's In The Mood For Love carries a Favourite verdict, a citrus-led wear.

This polarizing scent is a love-it-or-hate-it affair. For some, it's a nostalgic trip to floral gardens; for others, a harsh, fleeting disappointment. Approach with caution - or a very open mind.

About

In The Mood For Love opens with a burst of bright, fresh citrus and delicate white rose, immediately softened by creamy magnolia. As it develops, a bouquet of jasmine and lily-of-the-valley emerges, underpinned by a subtle cedar note. The drydown is a warm, gentle embrace of sandalwood, amber, and musk, leaving a light, inviting trail.
