What does Rauque smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. On character, masculine gets the most votes, with feminine not far behind.
It opens with sweet acacia absolute, blackcurrant bud and violet leaf, a green, slightly fruity start. In the heart, narcissus, myrrh, mushrooms and osmanthus pull the floral side towards earth and resin. Pine tar, ambrarome and leather leave a smoky, animalic trail at the base. Its profile is close to Roberto Greco Œillères and Lubin Daïmo.
