What does Musc Nomade smell like?

Papyrus gives the opening a clean, dry feel. Angelica and ambrette carry the heart, and patchouli, tonka bean and labdanum then ground it in a sweet, resinous, faintly smoky base. The accords also include animal and synthetic shades, which the scent keeps soft.

Longevity is moderate and sillage weak, so it stays close to the skin rather than filling a room. Voters spread across all four seasons, with fall slightly ahead. Daily wear, leisure and work are the occasions named most often. Feminine and masculine votes come out almost even. Goutal Ambre Sauvage Absolu and Juliette Has A Gun In the Mood for Oud have a close profile.
