What does Myrrhe & Délires smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, with summer well behind. It suits evenings and daily wear, and works at the office too. Votes split between feminine and masculine, so it carries no clear gender lean.

Grapefruit, pink pepper, black pepper and pear open it with a bright, slightly sharp start. In the heart, myrrh, iris, rose and apricot build a sweet, powdery floral core. Patchouli and frankincense leave a resinous, smoky, woody base. Jovoy Sombres Dessins and Chanel Allure Sensuelle (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
