What does Leaves in the Wind – Elixir de Muscel smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated strong, and nearly all voters score them high, though the number of votes is small. With no season or occasion data, all that can be said is that it is dense and assertive, and suits men and women alike.
Sweet, spicy and woody accords sit on an animal, leathery base. Leather, civet and castoreum deepen the character, while cinnamon, black pepper and fennel seed add spice. Amber, labdanum and frankincense bring a resinous warmth, and birch and smoky notes colour the whole composition.
