Annie Buzantian

"Sensuous is a warm, feminine amber-woody Eau de Parfum launched in 2008. Its character blends luminous white florals with smooth woods and a gently sweet, honeyed warmth. The fragrance develops from jasmine, lily, and magnolia into a molten-feeling heart of woods, amber, and ylang-ylang. Sandalwood gives the drydown a creamy, polished foundation, while white honey adds softness and pepper and mandarin provide contrast. The overall effect is elegant, subtly sensual, and composed rather than loud or aggressively oriental. Sensuous represents a modern, wood-focused interpretation of Estēe Lauder’s polished floral style."

Reviews Summary

“Sensuous is generally regarded as a soft, elegant, and subtly sensual amber-woody fragrance. Its floral opening, smooth woods, amber warmth, honeyed sandalwood, pepper, and mandarin create a feminine scent that is polished rather than overpowering. The women’s Eau de Parfum has a generally positive user reception across a large number of reviews.”
