What does Brun smell like?
It opens softly with heliotrope, musk and clary sage over ambergris. In the heart, ylang-ylang, magnolia and jasmine sambac add a creamy floral richness. The base lays down an earthy, smoky ground of Cambodian oud, patchouli and sandalwood, sweetened by vanilla blossom.
Voters find its longevity and sillage good, though the number of votes is small. Its sweet, heavy build suits women and men alike. Arabian Oud Blue Oud and Montale Aoud Musk have a close profile.
