What does Chypre 21 (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, fall and summer, with winter less favoured. It leans towards business, leisure and daily wear, while evening and night out come lower. Votes split between feminine and masculine, with a classic feel ahead of a modern one.
Bergamot and petitgrain open it fresh. In the heart, neroli, saffron and Bulgarian rose add a floral, lightly spiced softness. The base of patchouli, sandalwood, musk and oakmoss settles into a woody, green, earthy finish.
