The story behind the bottle.
Launched in 2011 by Estée Lauder, Sensuous Eau de Toilette is an Oriental Woody fragrance crafted by perfumer Annie Buzantian. The composition opens with a bright burst of citrus and mandarin orange, quickly giving way to the rich warmth of honey and white floral notes like ylang-ylang, jasmine, magnolia, and lily. At its heart, Sensuous balances these sweet florals with fresh spicy accents from pepper, while the woody base of sandalwood and amber provides a grounding, sensual foundation.
Apply this fragrance to pulse points for a steady release throughout the day. The citrus opening is bright but fleeting, so it's best to let the floral and woody heart take center stage as the day progresses.
