What does No. 11 smell like?
Both its longevity and its sillage are rated strong. Most voters lean towards autumn, with spring and winter not far behind, and it suits nights out, leisure time and evenings best. Votes for masculine and feminine are nearly even, so it sits comfortably on either side.
It starts with citrus notes and lemon, then moves into May rose, violet and Grasse jasmine. The base is led by patchouli, vetiver, oakmoss and vanilla, while celery seed and pepper add a spicy edge. The result is a sweet, creamy chypre with a faint animal touch.
