What does L'Enfant Terrible smell like?

The top opens dry and spicy with nutmeg, cumin and coriander, alongside herbaceous notes. In the heart, date sweetness meets cedar, orange tree wood and sandalwood, while green and fruity accords soften the woody core. Musk sits underneath, with a warm, oriental, slightly animalic and resinous feel in the background.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening, leisure and night out lead the occasions. Votes for feminine and masculine are almost equal, so it reads truly in between. Perfumes with a close profile include L.T. Piver Cèdre and Serge Lutens Arabie.
