SmokyWhat does Irrévérent smell like?
It opens with lavender, bergamot and elemi resin, then moves into a heart of oud, coffee and styrax. Amber, patchouli and sandalwood form the base. The overall impression is sweet and gourmand, but spicy, resinous and smoky tones weigh it down onto a woody footing.
Voters find its longevity strong and its sillage good. Most pick fall and winter, with spring trailing behind, and it is worn mainly in the evening and on nights out. It is unisex, though voters lean towards calling it masculine. Mancera Aoud Café and Parfums de Marly Pegasus Exclusif have a close profile.
