About This Perfume
Perfumer's Workshop Samba comes across as juicy berry and peach, floral sparkle with musk. It opens with blackcurrant, citrus notes and galbanum, moves into clove, hyacinth and jasmine and settles on amber, musk and myrrh. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de toilette is best in spring, summer and fall and is easy to wear day or night. It suits casual days. Released in 1987.
In the community's experience it lasts roughly a working morning or afternoon, and projects to about arm's length.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something fruity and sweet for casual days.
- Sample first if: fruity is new territory for you.
