What does Encore Un Peu (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It opens cool and green with plant juice and rhubarb. In the heart, cedar and purple iris bring a powdery floral feel and a woody frame. The base of sandalwood and gaiac wood carries that woody line on. Fruity and spicy touches stay in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters suggest spring and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. The largest share of voters reads it as feminine, though some find it masculine. Le Couvent Smyrna and Façonnable Façonnable pour Elle have a close profile.
