ChypreWhat does Place Rouge smell like?
It opens with orange blossom, rosemary and bergamot, fresh and slightly green. In the heart, violet, heliotrope and jasmine add a powdery, sweet floral touch, while white musk and patchouli dry down into a woody base that anchors the chypre feel.
Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring, followed by autumn, and it is recommended mostly for evening and nights out. Just over half of voters call it feminine, with a classic streak close behind. Its profile is close to Guerlain Quand Vient la Pluie and Detaille Alizée.
