What does Douleur! smell like?

Spearmint, rosemary and lavender give it a fresh, herbal feel, while damask rose and melon add floral and fruity touches. Cotton candy, caramel and vanilla bring sweetness, and oakmoss, cedarwood and sandalwood set a woody base. Civet and acetate add an animal, synthetic edge.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick spring, followed by fall and summer, and it leans towards leisure, night out and evening wear. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, so it sits in between. Bond No. 9 Bleecker Street and Chabaud Fleur de Figuier have a close profile.
