What does Feu Sacré smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, though the number of voters is small, so these ratings are tentative. The woody, resinous build sits comfortably on men and women alike and suits cooler weather.

It opens with Madagascan clove and South African pink pepper, spicy with a fresh edge. In the heart, Bourbon vanilla brings sweetness while Ethiopian myrrh adds a resinous weight. The base of opoponax and Somalian sandalwood settles into a woody, slightly earthy and smoky finish.
