What does 8 Mars 1764 smell like?
It opens with elemi resin, mandarin orange and bergamot, giving a fresh, fruity citrus feel. In the heart, cognac, coriander and labdanum bring out the sweetness and spice. The base of styrax, benzoin and vetiver sets it on a woody, resinous, slightly leathery ground, with gourmand and oriental touches keeping it sweet.
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by winter and spring, and leisure and evening wear lead the votes. Most voters read it as masculine. Givenchy pour Homme and Creed Aventus Cologne have a close profile.
