What does Force Majeure smell like?

It opens cool with ozone, aldehydes, bergamot and mint. The heart adds a spicy warmth through clove, black pepper and cinnamon leaf, with jasmine carrying the floral part. The base settles on gaiac wood, cedar and white musk. Green, fruity and slightly sweet tones, along with synthetic and animal touches, run through the blend.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters suggest fall and spring; leisure and daily wear come first, with evening and business use also mentioned. It reads masculine.
