OrientalWhat does R.S.V.P. (Eau de Toilette) smell like?
It opens with grapefruit sharpened by pepper, softened by lavender. The heart of iris, cedar and orchid sets a floral, woody ground. In the base, vetiver, cashmere wood, patchouli and sandalwood bring a woody, faintly oriental warmth, with a sweet, synthetic touch running through.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and place it in leisure, daily and business wear. Most voters read it as masculine, with some calling it modern. Lanoé No. 4 and Amouage Ciel Man share a close profile.
