What does Interdit Absente smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays close without overpowering a room. Most voters pick it for leisure, daily wear and the office, while evenings and nights come second. It sits comfortably on both men and women.

It opens with honey pomelo, mint, pepper and mugwort, a cool and green start. The heart adds orange, litsea cubeba, fennel, pink pepper and ginger, bringing a spicy, citrusy lift. The base settles on sandalwood, blond woods and musk, a soft woody ground, while the lemon sorbet keeps a sweet, fresh edge.
