What does Victoire smell like?

It opens with fig leaf, yuzu, bergamot and mandarin orange, bright and slightly fruity. Floral notes and green tea soften that freshness in the heart. The base of gaiac wood, amber, white musk and oakmoss settles into a woody, lightly spicy finish.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring and summer, and daily wear, leisure and the office lead the occasions. Feminine and masculine votes run close, so it sits comfortably on either. Its profile is close to M. Asam No. 1 and Roger & Gallet Thé Vert.
