What does Liquid Brun smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is worn mostly in the evening and on nights out. It reads somewhat more masculine, though it is unisex. Parfums de Marly Althaïr and Armaf Monarque have a close profile.
It opens with cinnamon and cardamom giving a spicy warmth, lightened a little by bergamot and orange blossom. In the heart, elemi resin and Bourbon vanilla settle the sweetness onto a creamy base. The base of praliné, gaiac wood, musk and ambroxan leaves a soft, woody warmth.
