What does Pi (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring further behind and summer rarely chosen. It leans towards evenings and nights out, though it also gets worn for leisure and daily use. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters mostly read it as masculine.

As a whole the scent stays warm and soft. Ironwood and pine needle form a woody, slightly resinous frame, while benzoin adds a creamy sweetness. Mandarin orange lends a brief lift to that density. The oriental and powdery accords round off the overall picture. Givenchy Pi Extreme and Goutal Vanille Exquise have a close profile.
