Guerlain Fève Gourmande in plain words

What it smells like, how it wears and who it suits.

How it wears

The perfume community says it lasts a long time, and projection is split between strong and moderate.

When to wear it

Wearers pick it for autumn evenings, with winter and daytime also working.

Who it suits
