What does L'Eau Scandaleuse smell like?

It opens with peach, bergamot and davana, then carries tuberose, ylang-ylang and leather at its heart. Nagarmotha, oakmoss and castoreum dominate the base, so the early fruity sweetness gives way to a spicy, animalic, leathery warmth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with evening and night out leading the occasions, while daily and office wear sit well behind. Votes lean feminine, though plenty call it classic or masculine. Calaj Love Toxin and Hedonik Obsessive Devotion have a close profile.
