What does Madagascar smell like?

It opens with pepper, labdanum and lily of the valley, then moves into amber, cedar and patchouli, which add an earthy, resinous depth. The base of musk, Bourbon vanilla, raspberry and sandalwood leaves a creamy sweetness, and the oriental, gourmand side gradually takes over.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it is favoured for nights out and evenings; it is rarely chosen for summer. Voters most often call it masculine, though modern and feminine readings also appear. Ambre Passion and Fjerne have a close profile.
