What does Gauguin smell like?
Ylang-ylang, tuberose and tiaré form the floral backbone, while coconut and monoï turn it creamy and fruity. Vanilla and musk soften the whole, and geranium and aldehydes add some lift. Bergamot and vetiver stay in the background, adding a woody, spicy edge.
Voters find its longevity very strong and its sillage strong, though the number of votes is small. It reads equally well on men and women. Guerlain Terracotta / Terracotta Le Parfum and F•Inity No•Limit have a close profile.
