What does Armani Privé - Nacre smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters place it in summer, spring and fall in near-equal measure, with winter less so. Night out and business lead the occasions, and feminine and masculine votes are almost evenly split.

The scent is fresh and floral over a powdery, woody, earthy base. Patchouli and vetiver give the earthy depth, orris adds a powdery softness, and spicy, oriental and faintly animal tones keep it warm. Hind Al Oud Musk al Shiokh and Electimuss Fortuna have a close profile.
