What does Cinabre smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening, night out and leisure are the most named occasions. Voters call its character feminine first, with classic in second place.

Black pepper, pink pepper and ginger open it with spice. Moroccan rose and Splendens rose carry the heart, and Bourbon vanilla, benzoin and opoponax sweeten the base into a powdery, resinous warmth, with a woody, oriental backdrop.
