What does Behind the Curtain Piazza alla Scala smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is mostly seen as an evening or night-out fragrance. Votes lean masculine, though a fair number call it feminine.

It opens with bergamot, saffron and clove, a spicy start. The heart brings leather, jasmine, juniper and labdanum, resinous and creamy in feel. Cypriol, cedarwood, sandalwood and patchouli make a sweet, woody base. Roja Parfums Parfum de la Nuit 3 and Yves Saint Laurent 6 Place Saint Sulpice have a close profile.
