What does Par Amour pour Lui smell like?

It opens fresh and herbal with French tarragon, Provençal lavender, bergamot and coriander. In the heart, tobacco absolute, hay absolute and leather lead, while patchouli and styrax add smoke and resin. The base of Haitian vetiver, labdanum absolute and tonka bean absolute sweetens it, and sandalwood and white musk soften the finish.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter; summer is rarely chosen. It suits the office, evenings and daily wear.
