    Real talk

    It's named Sunshine Woman and means it. Not the shallow kind of sweet that evaporates. Magnolia and jasmine follow, adding cream and a hint of green freshness.Sunshine Woman
    A warm oriental that doesn't beg for attention. The saffron and jasmine interplay is its real draw, florals over tobacco, powder over warmth. If you want a fragrance that arrives quietly and stays.Madame de Maintenon
