What does Eau des Missions smell like?
Its longevity is rated good, while its sillage stays moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, though spring is not far behind. It leans towards leisure and evening wear and can also pass in an office. More voters call it feminine, but a fair share see it as masculine.
As a whole it reads sweet and gourmand: benzoin and vanilla give a creamy, powdery warmth, while myrrh and Virginia cedar add a spicy, smoky, woody dryness. Gotu Kola and Chinese camellia soften this dense texture in the background. Molinard Vanille Patchouli and Pierre Guillaume Myrrhiad have a close profile.
