What does Salome smell like?

In Salome, jasmine, Turkish rose and carnation form the floral core, while musk and hyraceum set it on a leathery, animalic, powdery base. Spicy, resinous and earthy accords give it a dark, heavy chypre character.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening or night out; daily and office wear sit well behind. Votes split between feminine and masculine, so it doesn't read as tied to one gender. Nicolas de Barry La Reine Margot and Serge Lutens Sarrasins have a close profile.
