What does Vert Galant (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

A lavender opening leads into sandalwood and labdanum in the heart, while amber, musk and vanilla set a creamy, resinous base. Fresh and green touches are balanced by a spicy, woody line.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring, winter and fall, and leisure, daily wear and the office come up most often. It reads mostly masculine and classic. Le Blanc Lavande and Caron Pour Un Homme de Caron Millésime 2014 have a close profile.
