OrientalWhat does Impressions d'Hiver smell like?
Voters place it mostly in autumn and winter, then spring, and it suits daily wear, leisure and the office. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate.
The top opens with a fresh spicy mix of white pepper, cinnamon, cardamom, mandarin orange and bergamot. Rose, jasmine and violet carry the floral heart. The base turns sweeter with peach, apricot and vanilla, while sandalwood, amber and musk settle it into a soft, powdery woodiness.
