What does Armani Privé - Sable Or smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, followed by spring, and it is worn mostly in the evening and on nights out. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair number find it masculine.

The notes read as one whole rather than in stages: sandalwood and benzoin give it a woody, resinous warmth. Iris and violet add a powdery, floral softness, and vanilla and tonka bean push it towards a creamy sweetness. Mineral notes and the spicy, smoky accords keep it from turning too sugary. Guerlain L'Heure Bleue (Eau de Parfum) and Amouage Lustre share a close profile.
