Molinard de Molinard Eau de Toilette is a chypre-leaning feminine scent that sets the green freshness of bergamot and galbanum against a floral heart of jasmine and ylang-ylang, settling on vetiver and patchouli.

What does Molinard de Molinard (Eau de Toilette) smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays noticeable up close without filling a room. Most voters pick spring and fall, with daytime and evening the leading occasions. Most voters read it as feminine and classic.

It opens fresh, green and slightly fruity with tagetes, blackcurrant bud and bergamot. The heart turns floral with jasmine, narcissus, ylang-ylang and Rosa centifolia. Vetiver, patchouli and amber leave a dry, woody, lightly spicy base.
