What does Zone Blanche smell like?

Zone Blanche is moderate in both lasting power and sillage, neither heavy nor faint. Voters place it most often in leisure and daily wear, with business and evening settings close behind.

It opens with mandarin orange, bergamot, nutmeg and absinth, which give it a lightly spicy, green freshness. In the heart, tobacco sits beside floral ylang-ylang and magnolia, with a smoky edge. The base of coumarin, sandalwood and musk settles into a sweet, woody, powdery finish. Dasa Vert Musc and Daniel Josier Bois d'Iris have a close profile.
