What does Diaghilev (Parfum) smell like?

Bergamot, lemon and orange give a fresh start, with tarragon adding a slightly bitter edge. In the heart, may rose, ylang-ylang, tuberose, violet and peach form a full floral core. The base is led by patchouli, labdanum, leather and vanilla, and the accords read spicy, resinous, powdery and animalic.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is chosen most often for evenings and nights out. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though many also call it classic; it reads as unisex. The Dua Brand Impresario and Scentiments Diaglow have a close profile.
