What does Point du jour smell like?

Built from thyme, clary sage absolute and eucalyptus absolute, it has no top-heart-base split and reads as a single piece. The fresh, green side leads, framed by a spicy edge and a woody, earthy, lightly smoky background.

Longevity is good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Most voters pick spring, autumn and summer, with winter the least chosen. Leisure and daily wear come first, with office use close behind. Voters lean slightly masculine, though a sizeable share call it feminine.
