What does Oscar Celebration smell like?

Clove, coriander and bergamot give it a spicy, fresh start. In the heart, ylang-ylang, iris, jasmine and rose set the floral character, softened by fruity and sweet accords. Vetiver, musk and amber settle it onto a woody, powdery base with a faint animal edge.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Voters spread it almost evenly across the four seasons, with summer slightly behind. Leisure and evening wear lead, with daytime and office close behind. It has been discontinued. Agent Provocateur Agent Provocateur and Pascal Morabito Or Noir have a close profile.
