What does Animale (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

The opening brings bergamot, neroli, coriander and green notes, a fresh start. In the heart, rose, jasmine and ylang-ylang lead, with honey sweetening the floral body. The base settles into oakmoss, patchouli, vetiver and civet, which give it an earthy, animalic depth.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening or a night out; spring also works. It reads classic and clearly feminine. Aramis and Clinique Aromatics Elixir have a close profile.
