What does L'Esprit Libre smell like?
Its longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and leisure, daily wear and the office are the occasions named most often. Votes on character lean feminine, though modern and masculine votes are well represented too.
The top notes of mandarin orange leaf, coriander seed and bergamot give a fresh, lightly spicy start. In the heart, peony and magnolia add a soft floral note, while orris brings a powdery touch. The base of ambergris, ambrette seed, Virginia cedar and cashmeran settles into a warm, woody floor. Esteban Le Bain - Esprit de Thé and Atelier Vesper Elea have a close profile.
