What does Jérusalem smell like?

The top opens with orange, bergamot and lemon for a bright citrus start. Towards the heart, patchouli, clove and star anise bring a spicy, earthy side, while sandalwood and cedar set it on a woody footing. In the base, charred wood and olive wood add a smoky edge, softened by tree moss, vanilla and benzoin, which bring in a sweeter warmth.

Voters find the longevity good and the sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so those ratings are best read with caution. The scent sits comfortably on anyone, leaning neither clearly masculine nor feminine. Technique Indiscrète Santa Subita and Grès Quiproquo have a close profile.
