What does le chant d'Achille smell like?

Most voters pick spring and summer, with fall following. It is chosen most for leisure, daily wear and the office. Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, and its character votes split between feminine, modern and masculine, so it sits somewhere in between.

The top opens with lemon, black pepper and neroli, giving a fresh, lightly spiced citrus first impression. Geranium, orange blossom and ylang-ylang bring a soft floral heart. The base of vetiver, immortelle, moss and white musk settles the scent into something earthy and creamy. Diptyque Citronnelle & Géranium and Jo Malone Basil & Neroli (Cologne) have a close profile.
