ChypreWhat does Jean-Louis Scherrer (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with the crisp bite of galbanum, blackcurrant bud and bergamot, with tangerine softening the edges. Jasmine, iris and rose form a floral heart. The base settles into a dry, woody floor of oakmoss, patchouli, vetiver and sandalwood.
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it is spread evenly across office, daytime and evening wear. Most voters read it as feminine and classic. Givenchy III and Goutal Eau du Sud have a close profile.
