What does Parisian Musc (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring and summer, while few choose winter. Daily wear, leisure and business come up most often. It sits between masculine and feminine rather than leaning clearly to one side.

The scent reads fresh and green throughout, with fig leaf carrying that mood, while Peruvian ambrette seed and ambrettolide add a powdery, creamy softness. Virginia cedar and ambroxan form a woody base, and a fruity sweetness and a little spice stay in the background. Courrèges Hyper Musc and Pantomime Act 1 have a close profile.
