What does Atelier d'Artiste smell like?

It begins with black grape, cognac and rum, a fruity, slightly boozy start. In the heart, juniper, patchouli and vetiver lay down an earthy, woody base, while raspberry adds a sweet fruit note. The base carries leather, tobacco and coffee for the smoky side, softened by vanilla and heliotrope.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is chosen most for evenings and nights out. Feminine and masculine votes run close, so it sits comfortably on either. Jovoy Pavillon Rouge and Tom Ford Black Orchid (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
