What does Centenaire smell like?

The top pairs floral notes with leaves, so it opens green and airy. In the heart, rose and jasmine meet powdery notes and the creamy touch of hazelnut. The base of cedar, musk, vanilla and amber sets a woody, resinous and sweet ground.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall and spring, and it leans towards leisure, daily and office wear. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though the feminine share is sizeable, so it sits between the two. Houbigant Essence Rare and Gebauer & Gebauer By Appointment have a close profile.
