ChypreWhat does Pompeii Red (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Lemon and orange bring a bright lift, joined by jasmine and lily, while cinnamon, clove and carnation add spicy warmth. Oakmoss, civet and Peru balsam give the scent an earthy, animalic, resinous depth, and vanilla softens it with a touch of sweetness. The oriental and chypre character comes through together, leaving an impression that is both lively and dark. Acampora Pompeii Red (Pure Essence) and Bourjois Kobako have a close profile.
