What does Lumière Garçon smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters recommend autumn and winter, with spring second and summer well behind. It suits cooler weather and reads masculine.

It opens with bergamot's freshness alongside black pepper and basil spice. In the heart, geranium, sage and date soften the spicy edge and add sweetness. The base of amber, sandalwood and frankincense settles into a woody, smoky, resinous warmth. Sweet, spicy and oriental accords dominate.
