What does You're So Vain smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it is noticed nearby without filling a room. Most voters recommend spring and summer, with winter clearly behind. Leisure, daily and business wear lead the occasions. Most voters read its character as masculine, though plenty also call it modern.

It opens with Italian grapefruit, Italian lemon and green notes in a bright, fresh start. In the heart, red fruits, blackcurrant and blond tobacco add a sweet, fruity touch. The base of patchouli, oakmoss and nutmeg settles it into a woody, lightly spicy finish.
