Police To Be Woman is an Eau de Parfum launched in 2012. To Be Woman opens with Clementine, Lime, and Apple, settles into a heart of Jasmine and Cotton Candy, and dries down to a base of Woody Notes and Musk. Police's To Be Woman carries a Favourite verdict, a sweet-led wear.

This budget-friendly fruity-floral is a crowd-pleaser for some, yet divisive for others who find it too synthetic or juvenile. Expect a vibrant, sweet-and-sour blast that's perfect for casual wear, but don't expect it to last for ages. It's a fun, innocent scent that's often compared to other popular fruity fragrances.

Top, heart and base are the brand's own listing, not a timing claim - the industry classifies a note by its character as much as by how fast it fades. Each curve here is modelled from that material's own volatility, so groups can overlap when a house lists long-lasting materials in its heart.

About

Exploding with a fizzy blend of bright apple, zesty lime, and sweet clementine, To Be Woman delivers an instant hit of candied citrus. As it settles, a sugary cotton candy note emerges, softened by delicate jasmine florals. The base offers a subtle, clean musk with a whisper of woods, keeping the overall impression light, fresh, and playfully sweet.
