What does Galop d'Hermès smell like?

Saffron and leather give the scent a spicy, leathery backbone, while rose carries the floral side and quince the fruity freshness. A creamy accord ties the sharp and soft parts together.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick fall and spring, and use is spread evenly across daily, leisure, evening and office wear. Voters mostly call it feminine, though a fair number find it masculine. Valmont Private Mind and Louis Vuitton Mille Feux have a close profile.
