What does Myths Woman smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and spring, with summer and winter further behind. It is mostly chosen for leisure and evening wear, with some votes for business and nights out. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair number call it classic.

The top opens cool and green with galbanum, violet leaf and narcissus. In the heart, carnation adds spice, patchouli adds earth and ambergris softens it. The base of musk, smoked leather and oakmoss turns animal, woody and leathery. Jil Sander Man Pure and Nicolaï Le Temps d'Une Fête have a close profile.
