What does Et Pourtant (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall, with winter and spring following, and a share also wear it for business or daily use. Nearly half of those who voted for character call it masculine, with others pointing to a classic feel.

It opens with lavender, aromatic notes and key lime, fresh and green. Lily of the valley, clary sage and Siam benzoin then add a floral, spicy, resinous softness. In the base, amber, leather and white musk settle into a creamy, leathery trail. Henry Jacques Roi Sans Equipage and Estēe Lauder Metropolis have a close profile.
