What does La French smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and spring, with winter not far behind, and it suits leisure time, evenings and daily wear. Votes lean feminine, though some call it modern or masculine.
Coriander, citrus fruits and almond open it lightly spicy and fresh. In the heart, white musk, vanilla absolute and orris absolute add a powdery, creamy softness. Ambergris and sandalwood leave a warm, woody base. Its profile is close to Reghen's Charms and Aaron Terence Hughes Homme.
