What does L'Eau des Immortels smell like?

The scent moves as a single piece: benzoin and vanilla lay down a sweet, gourmand base, and tonka bean softens it. Labdanum and immortelle add a resinous, earthy depth, amyris gives a woody frame, and bergamot lightens the weight a little. The spicy, oriental side keeps the sweetness from turning sugary.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall, with winter second, and evening and leisure wear lead the occasions. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though a fair share see it as feminine, so it reads as unisex. Penhaligon's Kensington Amber and Parfums de Marly Oajan have a close profile.
