What does Joyaux d'Orient / Privé N°16 smell like?

Jasmine and spices open with a floral and spicy pairing. In the heart, tonka bean and ambergris turn the sweetness into a soft, gourmand warmth. Balsam fir and cedarwood form a woody, slightly smoky base.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, though spring is not far behind. It is mentioned most for evenings, leisure time and nights out. It suits both men and women. Federico Mahora Pure Royal 910 and Les Perles D'Orient Passion Folle have a close profile.
