What does Folies d'Épices smell like?

It opens bright and fresh with elemi resin, bergamot and cardamom. In the heart, rose, cinnamon and nutmeg bring a floral softness warmed by spice. Cedar, sandalwood and musk form a smooth woody base. Fruity and sweet tones run through the accords, along with a synthetic sheen.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall, spring and winter, with summer far behind. It leans towards daily and leisure wear, and works for evenings too. It reads mostly masculine, though a sizeable share finds it feminine. Carolina Herrera Chic for Men and Hugo Boss Boss in Motion have a close profile.
