What does II-IV Kintsugi smell like?

It opens with bergamot, Chinese magnolia and amber. In the heart, violet leaf absolute, suede and Rosa centifolia absolute carry the green, floral tone forward. In the base, raspberry leaf absolute, vanilla absolute and patchouli sweeten it and settle it onto a woody, leathery floor.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick spring and autumn, with leisure and evening wear leading the occasions. More voters call it feminine, though a sizeable share read it as masculine. Diptyque Eau Capitale and Hermès Barénia have a close profile.
