What does Dorade smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though only a small number of votes stand behind those ratings. No clear lean towards a particular season or occasion shows, and it reads as unisex, suited to men and women alike.

It opens with Italian lemon, Greek eucalyptus and Vietnamese black pepper, while Thai jasmine water and coumarin soften the heart. In the base, Haitian vetiver, ambergris and sandalwood form a woody foundation. Dsquared² 2 Wood and BMW Amberness have a close profile.
