Jean-Michel Duriez Mon Paris Secret is a unisex fragrance that wraps the sweet, resinous warmth of vanilla, tonka bean absolute and Tolu balm in opoponax and Ceylonese cinnamon.
Skunky's take: Floral accords up front; keep it from the bees.

ResinousWhat does Mon Paris Secret smell like?
The notes read as one whole rather than a top, heart and base sequence. Mango and Calabrian bergamot add a fruity brightness, while Russian coriander and cinnamon bring spice. Patchouli and Spanish cistus give it an earthy, woody footing, and the vanilla, tonka and Tolu balm soften everything into a powdery, oriental sweetness, with a floral touch running through it.
