nuancée
Nuancée mais racée, douce et raffinée
The first word is causing me severe problems. The word "subtle" springs to mind, but I'm not 100% sure. The more I mull it over, the more I think "subtle" would be better suited to "douce". For some reason I seem to be going round in circles this evening. I would be very grateful if anyone could set me back on track again! Thanks!
