Curve was conceived as a fragrance for women by Liz Claiborne, but anyone who likes a floral fruity fragrance that is anchored by musk, amber, and various woods will love it. A: Curve has a performance ranging between three and five hours. As the head and heart layers fade,Curve dries down to a musky and woody base that stays close to the skin. Each wearer has a different body chemistry, so the dry-down will vary. Re-spray Curve to introduce the fruity and floral accords.
