What does L'Empreinte (2021) smell like?
Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, though the vote counts are small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. With no gender lean, it sits comfortably on either men or women.
Bergamot opens, patchouli takes the heart and ambrox holds the base. Floral and fruity sweetness is balanced by a spicy, oriental edge, while the synthetic and powdery sides give the scent a soft, smooth texture. Joop! Joop! Homme (Eau de Toilette) and Pascal Morabito Pluie de Perles have a close profile.
