Our verdict on Accordes: Favourite

This one's a divisive classic, with plenty of folks loving its 'effortless sexy' vibe and others finding it a 'nightmare in perfume form'. Not a safe blind buy, but if it clicks, it really clicks.

Its blend of sweet florals and woody notes, with prominent projection and longevity, makes it a bit much for the office. However, it's perfect for dates and casual wear where its 'effortless sexy' quality can shine, albeit a little mature for some.

About

Accordes opens with a bright and juicy burst of blackcurrant, apple, and citrus, immediately followed by a sweet, slightly cloying floral bouquet of orange blossom and ylang-ylang. The heart unfolds into a rich tapestry of rose, lily-of-the-valley, and jasmine, settling onto a smooth base of earthy vetiver, creamy sandalwood, and soft musk. It's a journey from vibrant freshness to a more mature, woody-floral finish.
