What does Bizarre (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

It opens fresh and citrusy with bergamot and lemon, sharpened by green notes and aldehydes. The heart builds a floral body from orchid, rose, jasmine and ylang-ylang. The base of vetiver, sandalwood, oakmoss and musk forms a woody, animalic chypre foundation, with civet pushing that side further.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Votes spread almost evenly across the four seasons, with spring slightly ahead. Evening is the most suggested occasion, with business and leisure close behind. Pierre Cardin Choc de Cardin and Dior Diorella have a close profile.
