What does Grand Beau (2022) smell like?

It opens with juniper berry, angelica root and pine absolute, a sharp, green and airy start. At the heart, vetiver, frankincense and tuberose absolute add an earthy, resinous and slightly spicy depth. The base of Ambrocenide®, fucus absolute and ambrette settles into a clean, aquatic floor with a synthetic edge.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and spring, then summer, and it suits leisure, daily wear and the office. Voters mostly read it as masculine and classic. Perfumes with a close profile include Beaufort Cape Wrath and Thomas De Monaco Grand Beau (2024).
