What does Monsieur smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring next; it leans towards evenings and nights out, though business and daily wear also get votes. Most voters read it as masculine and classic.

The scent is built on sandalwood, cedar and vetiver, with patchouli and oakmoss absolute adding an earthy edge to the woody base. Frankincense absolute brings a resinous warmth, while papyrus absolute gives a dry, fresh greenness. The spicy and smoky sides stay in the background.
