What does Sable Fauve smell like?

The notes have no top, heart and base split; the scent reads as a single whole. Spanish cistus and Siam benzoin give a resinous, spicy warmth, while Tonka bean pulls it toward a creamy, sweet gourmand tone. Woody and oriental accents stay in the background.

Longevity and sillage are both moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring and summer well behind. Votes spread across leisure, evening, daily wear, nights out and the office. Voters mostly call it feminine and modern. Maison Francis Kurkdjian Grand Soir (Eau de Parfum) and Clive Christian XXI: Art Deco - Blonde Amber have a close profile.
