What does Entendre smell like?
The scent reads as a single piece: leather and tobacco draw the outline, while iris and woody notes pull it towards a powdery, floral tone. Spicy, leathery and fougère accords sit alongside it, and a slightly synthetic sheen runs through the composition.
It is classed as a men's fragrance. Longevity and sillage are rated moderate, though few people have voted, so that picture is tentative. Theodoros Kalotinis Leather Iris and Roberto Cavalli Royal Iris have a close profile.
