What does Courtesan II smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and projection good, though the ratings come from only a few voters, so they are a rough guide rather than a verdict. With no season or occasion votes, its structure suggests cooler weather and evening wear, and it sits comfortably on both men and women.

It opens with yuzu and sudachi for a sharp citrus lift. The heart brings oriental tobacco, saffron, black tea, tuberose and red champaca into a spicy, floral core. The base settles on patchouli, Thai oud and deer musk, giving a woody, powdery, animalic finish. Ormonde Jayne Orris Noir and Comme des Garçons Daphne have a close profile.
