Parfum des Merveilles

Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, while spring and summer trail behind. It leans towards nights out and evenings, with leisure and daily wear also getting votes. It is classed as a women's fragrance and most voters call it feminine, though a fair number find it masculine.

The notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base: oakmoss, amber, cognac, patchouli, Peru balsam and oak. The sweetness comes from the amber and balsam, while oakmoss, patchouli and oak give the dry, earthy side. A powdery softness runs through the blend.
