About This Perfume
Think peach jam warmed with cinnamon, powdery florals: that is Coty Ex'cla-ma'tion. It opens with peach, apricot and bergamot, moves into jasmine, heliotrope and rose and settles on musk, amber and vanilla. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
It works across all four seasons and is easy to wear day or night. Reach for it for casual days and date nights. Released in 1988.
Wearers report that it lasts a solid half day on skin, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something gourmand and powdery for casual days.
- Sample first if: floral is new territory for you.
- Skip if: you dislike fruity fragrances.
Around $11.
