ResinousWhat does L'Étole de Vison smell like?
The top opens with aldehydes, peach and peach skin, giving a smooth, slightly powdery fruitiness. In the heart, orris root and Bulgarian rose otto lead, with champaca absolute rounding out the floral side. The base is warm and animalic, built on castoreum, civet, ambergris and musk, then deepened by oud, brown oakmoss and Australian sandalwood into something woody and spicy. DSH Perfumes Rendezvous and Lily Farouche Absolut have a close profile.
