What does Mousse de Chêne 30 smell like?

Moss and patchouli give it an earthy, woody base, and Clearwood™ and Evernyl add a clean, synthetic-leaning woodiness. Pink pepper, pimento and cinnamon bring a light spiciness and a touch of sweetness that never takes over.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and spring, with winter close behind, and see it as a leisure, daytime or evening scent. Most voters read it as masculine, though a fair number find it feminine. Diptyque Eau Capitale and Lalique L'Insoumis have a close profile.
