What does Sound of a Ricochet smell like?
Most voters pick autumn and winter, with evenings and nights out leading. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Feminine and masculine votes are almost even, so it sits comfortably on either side.
It opens with amyris and aniseed. The heart brings tonka bean absolute, gurjum balsam and patchouli. In the base, vanilla absolute, Australian sandalwood and labdanum build a sweet, creamy, resinous woodiness, softened by powdery and earthy shades. Maison Margiela Whispers in the Library and Ard Al Zaafaran Oud Al Shams have a close profile.
