What does L'Ouïe - Étude 1.2 smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good, and most voters score longevity high. There are no season or occasion votes, so it would be wrong to point it anywhere in particular. Its unisex build suits both men and women.

It opens with black pepper, rosewood and seawater, which give a cool, slightly salty start. In the heart, coconut milk adds a creamy sweetness and clove brings spice, while Virginia cedar, Haitian amyris and Mysore sandalwood build a woody backbone. The base of musk and tonka bean leaves a soft, powdery warmth. Pierre Guillaume 4.1 Le Musc & La Peau and Comme des Garçons Concrete have a close profile.
