What does Eau de Patou (2013) smell like?
Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office lead the occasions. Votes for feminine and masculine are close, so it moves easily between both.
Sicilian lemon, lime, bergamot and orange build a bright citrus core. Pepper adds a spicy edge and lavender a green freshness, while orange blossom softens them with a powdery, floral touch. The overall feel is fresh and chypre-like.
