What does Honour 43 smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick spring and summer, and name leisure and daily use as the main occasions; most also find it feminine. It can be worn in autumn too, and is chosen less often in winter.

It opens with rhubarb leaf, coriander and pepper, a fresh, green and lightly spicy start. In the heart, tuberose, jasmine, gardenia, lily of the valley and carnation build a floral, creamy, powdery body. The base of vetiver, sandalwood, leather and frankincense adds a woody, sweet depth. Amouage Honour Woman and The Dua Brand Glory for Her 43 have a close profile.
