What does Mystery smell like?

Mystery's longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. Voters pick it most for nights out and evenings, though daily wear follows close behind. Its sweet, oriental build gives it a clearly feminine character.

The top opens fresh and slightly bitter with bitter orange, bergamot and galbanum. Hibiscus and plum bring a fruity floral heart. In the base, amber, cedar, tonka bean, benzoin and sandalwood settle into a powdery, resinous, woody warmth. Dior Ambre Nuit and The Different Company Oriental Lounge have a close profile.
