What does Ciel de Gum smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, winter and spring, with summer trailing behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, though it also finds a place in leisure and daily wear. It has been discontinued.

Jasmine carries the floral side, while vanilla and amber sweeten and soften it. Pink pepper adds a spicy edge. Woody and oriental accords build a warm, powdery base. Gaultier² and L'Ambre Vanille have a close profile.
