What does Les Compositions Parfumées - Electrum smell like?

Voters rate its longevity as good and its sillage as moderate. Most pick spring, followed by autumn and summer, with few choosing winter. Leisure, business and daily wear lead the occasions. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair number find it masculine.

The opening is fresh, fruity and citrusy, led by freesia, pear and bergamot. In the heart, rose and jasmine add a floral softness while sandalwood lays a woody base. The base of patchouli, musk, Haitian vetiver and amber settles the scent into a green, spicy, woody chypre. Pascal Morabito My Diamond and Alfred Ritchy Urban have a close profile.
