What does Ethereal smell like?

The top is fresh and herbal, with green tea, sage and clary sage. Lily, rose and jasmine soften the heart with a floral touch. In the base, oud, sandalwood, vanilla and patchouli take over, leaving a sweet, spicy, resinous and slightly smoky trail.

Voters find the longevity strong and the sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so this is a limited sample. The profile sits comfortably on both men and women. Tom Ford Oud Fleur and Boadicea the Victorious Passionate have a close profile.
