Incandessence

Incandessence is a floral fruity fragrance for women, released by Avon in 2000 and credited to the house of Givaudan rather than to a named perfumer. Orchid frames the whole thing, at the top and again in the base, with lily-of-the-valley and cyclamen making the opening green and dewy. Tulip and peony fill the middle out, soft and slightly powdery, and there is very little sweetness anywhere in it. Clean, floral and deliberately unfussy. It lasts a moderate while and projects moderately, and it suits spring and autumn daylight.
