What does Laudan smell like?

It reads as a single composition: leather and pine lead, while oak and underwood form a woody base. Balsamic notes and fossilised amber add a sweet, resinous warmth, moss and sycamore maple bring a green, earthy edge, and floral notes stay in the background. Smoky and spicy shades deepen the whole without making it harsh.

Voters find the longevity good and the sillage moderate, so it makes itself known without filling the room. The number of votes is small, so these ratings are only indicative. Its unisex character suits men and women equally. Serge Lutens Chêne and Tom Ford Ébène Fumé (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
