What does Fumée Toxique smell like?

Violet gives the opening a floral touch, while sandalwood and cedarwood form a woody core in the heart. Musk and ambergris soften the base. Among the accords, spicy, resinous and oriental sides lead, with a synthetic edge in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Voters place it mostly in leisure and evening wear, with some choosing nights out. It is made for men. Le Cult 1944 Borneo and Widian Black I have a close profile.
