What does Poudre de Musc Intense (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

It wears with good longevity and moderate sillage. Most voters recommend spring, fall and summer, and it leans towards leisure, daily wear and the office. Nearly half of voters find it feminine, though it works as a unisex fragrance.

The top notes of mandarin orange, raspberry and petitgrain give a fresh, fruity start. In the heart, orange blossom absolute, rose, carnation and aldehydes add a floral, lightly spicy powderiness. In the base, musk, sandalwood and amber settle it into a soft, sweet woodiness.
