‘A delicate fragrance, carried by the powdery notes of Egyptian jasmine and Tunisian orange blossom, enriched with the sweet scents of peach and apple. The generously woody base is a sensual cocktail where the warmth of musk and amber combines with the sweet accords of leather and vanilla. – Harold And Maude
Delicieusement Tendre is a pretty fruity scent. The florals are there, but straight away this has the musky fruity essence, familiar to popular fragrances such as Xerjoff Erba Pura. It’s juicy and vibrant, but at the same time the muskiness and florals add a powdery touch.
Leaning more towards the traditionally feminine side for sure in my opinion and I’d say more youthful than the other Harold & Maude fragrances that I’ve reviewed so far. The base is warmer and sweeter; overall this is quite a sweet fragrance, but with much more emphasis on the sweet fruitiness rather than actual vanilla/amber for most of the wear.
Definitely not as much to my taste as Delicieusement Sensuelle or Resolument Affranchi.
