What does Le Dieu Bleu smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it leaves a noticeable trail without filling a room. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are a rough guide. It does not lean masculine or feminine and suits anyone who likes it.

The notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base: myrrh and Balm of Gilead give a warm, resinous depth, while calamus and broom add a green, floral freshness. Spicy and woody touches keep the balance. Perfumes with a close profile include The Bible Fragrance Myrrh and Masque III-II Romanza.
