What does Millésime 1849 (2013) smell like?

It opens with Calabrian bergamot, fresh and citrusy. In the heart, jasmine and ylang-ylang bring a soft floral note while cedar and patchouli lay down a green, earthy ground. The base of musk, sandalwood, Bourbon vanilla and oud settles into a woody, powdery warmth with a faint animal edge.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, with summer trailing behind. It leans towards daily wear, leisure and the office. Harry Lehmann Maracaibo and Rogue Bon Monsieur have a close profile.
