About This Perfume
Vilhelm Parfumerie Room Service smells like fresh berries and citrus with violet-powder softness. It opens with blackberry and mandarin orange nectar, moves into violet, bamboo and pink orchid and settles on musk, black amber and sandalwood. It leans feminine, though anyone can wear it.
This eau de parfum is best in spring, summer and fall and is a daytime scent. It suits the office. Released in 2015.
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 fresh and uplifting for the office.
- Sample first if: you have not smelled it before; it is not an easy blind buy.
- Skip if: you dislike floral fragrances.
Around $115.
