What does Deneuve (Parfum) smell like?

The top is green notes, aldehydes, galbanum, bergamot, basil and neroli, a sharp, fresh green start. The heart builds a powdery floral body from hyacinth, lily of the valley, iris, rose, jasmine, ylang-ylang and violet. In the base, civet, sandalwood, oakmoss, musk and cedarwood add a woody, animalic, slightly oriental depth. It has been discontinued. Le Galion Sortilège and Lancôme Magie Noire have a close profile.
