PowderyWhat does Par Amour smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and fall, and daily and business wear lead the occasions, though it carries a sweetness that can work in the evening too.
It opens with pink pepper, blackcurrant and cassia, fresh and lightly spicy. The heart of vanilla, Turkish rose and cardamom turns floral and sweet, and the base of labdanum, sandalwood, benzoin and amber settles into a woody, powdery, oriental warmth.
