What does Fougèriste smell like?

It opens with Tunisian neroli, lemon, bergamot and dewberry, bright and citrusy. The heart settles into orange blossom, basil, Bulgarian lavender and violet leaf, floral, green and lightly spicy. Moss, patchouli, cedar and sandalwood form a woody, creamy base underneath.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and summer, with autumn not far behind. It leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Being unisex, it sits comfortably on anyone. Roja Parfums Oceania and Fragrance Du Bois London Spice have a close profile.
