In plain words

The main accords of LouLou are powdery and amber. It opens with Plum and Chinese Cinnamon Wood, reveals Ylang-Ylang and Heliotrope at its heart, and dries down to Vanilla and Incense. It lasts long and projects strongly; people reach for it in autumn and winter, mostly in the evening.
