Laura

Laura by Laura Biagiotti, composed by Anne Flipo in 1994, is a soft, fruity floral that stays close to the skin. Everyone describes it as floral, most also find it woody and about half sweet; a minority notice musk, a fresh edge and citrus.

The opening is juicy and a little watery: peach, litchi, plum and watermelon over bergamot and green notes, with rosewood adding a smooth, faintly rosy wood. The heart is a wide, gentle bouquet, with rose and jasmine at its centre, freesia and cyclamen bringing a dewy, almost aquatic freshness, violet a touch of powder and lily of the valley a clean, green-white lift. The base is quiet and warm: vanilla and amber for softness, sandalwood, cedar and vetiver for a dry woody finish, and musk to hold it near the skin.

Most wearers report moderate longevity and an intimate to moderate trail. It is voted mainly for spring and summer and overwhelmingly for daytime. It suits someone who wants a delicate, pretty fragrance for everyday wear.
