What does Épine du Désert (Eau de Parfum) smell like?
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, and it leans towards evenings, nights out and leisure time. Masculine leads the character votes, though feminine is not far behind, so it sits comfortably on either side.
Saffron and pimento open with spice, then rose and jasmine bring the floral side forward. In the base, suede, sandalwood and dry woods dry down into a woody, sweet, oriental warmth, with a faintly synthetic edge among the accords.
