What does Chypré X smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick spring and fall, though summer has its share too; evening, leisure and night out lead the occasions. Feminine and masculine votes sit close together, and a classic reading is common.

The scent reads as a green, fruity chypre under a floral layer. Tuberose, ylang-ylang, jasmine and May rose carry the flowers, while plum and peach bring the fruit. Powdery iris and heliotrope soften it, cumin and clove add spice, and civet gives an animal warmth.
