What does Barbier des Isles smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Voters spread across all four seasons almost evenly, with fall and spring slightly ahead. Leisure and evening are the most chosen occasions, with daily and business wear close behind.

Bergamot, orange and lemon give it a fresh opening. In the heart, clove, cardamom and frankincense bring a spicy, smoky air, softened by jasmine. Vetiver, patchouli and myrrh form an earthy, woody base.
