What does L'Eau Papier (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both moderate, so it stays close to the skin without leaving a heavy trail. Daily wear, leisure and business are the settings it leans towards, while nights out and sport come well behind. Voters call it feminine and modern, though it wears easily on anyone.
It is fresh, floral and powdery, with the notes reading together as one whole. Mimosa and white musk give it a soft, creamy feel, and blond woods set a dry, woody base. Roasted sesame and rice steam keep the sweetness light. Guerlain Musc Outreblanc and Phlur Missing Person have a close profile.
