What does Eau du Sud smell like?

It opens with lime, bergamot and peppermint, with galbanum adding a sharp green edge. Basil and lemon vervain carry that freshness through the heart. In the base, vetiver, patchouli and oakmoss give it a dry, woody, chypre-style footing.

Most voters recommend summer and spring, and daily wear, leisure and business are the occasions named most often. Longevity is rated moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin. Votes for masculine and feminine are nearly even, in line with its unisex character. Balmain de Balmain and Eau de Campagne have a close profile.
