What does 1926 (Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes, so it is hard to say when it suits best.

It opens with pear, ginger, narcissus and orange blossom, which read fresh, fruity and lightly spicy. In the heart, patchouli, jasmine and carnation add a woody depth to the florals. The base of frankincense, amber and leather dries down resinous, powdery and slightly animalic. Histoires de Parfums 1890 and Puig Quorum have a close profile.
