What does Olim smell like?

The top notes are iris, bergamot and lavender: iris adds a powdery softness, lavender a green freshness. Pink pepper and clove bring spice to the heart. In the base, myrrh, patchouli and benzoin absolute sweeten the scent and pull it towards a warm, woody, resinous and earthy finish.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays close rather than filling the room. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it sits most comfortably in the evening or on a night out. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, which places it somewhere in between. Atelier des Ors Iris Fauve and Téo Cabanel Alahine have a close profile.
