CreamyWhat does Guilty Elixir de Parfum pour Homme smell like?
Nutmeg, pimento and orange blossom absolute open with a fresh, spicy lift. In the heart, osmanthus and orris butter add a soft, floral and powdery touch. The base of vanillin, patchouli and Siam benzoin sweetens the scent and closes it on a creamy, woody warmth.
Its longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters point to fall and spring, with winter not far behind. It leans towards night outs and evenings, yet also suits leisure and daily wear. Most voters read it as masculine and modern.
