What does Peonia smell like?

The flowers lead: peony and magnolia give it a fresh, citrusy lightness, while jasmine sambac absolute deepens the floral side. Madagascan geranium adds a green, lightly spicy edge, and Indonesian patchouli with amber lays down an earthy, warm base. The notes don't unfold in stages; it reads from start to finish as one whole bouquet.

Longevity is rated good, and most voters say it stays on skin for a long time, though the number of votes is small. Its fresh, green character leans towards daytime wear, and it sits comfortably on both men and women. It dates from 2023 and was composed by Jean-Claude Ellena. Chopard Patchouli de Sumatra and Creed Baie de Genièvre have a close profile.
