What does Bois de Gayac smell like?

The top is fresh and fruity, with orange, mandarin orange and pink pepper. The heart holds Mysore sandalwood, saffron and cistus. The base brings myrrh, frankincense, oud and gaiac wood, and the scent settles into an earthy, leathery, lightly powdery woodiness.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is chosen most for evenings and nights out. Votes for feminine and masculine are close.
