What does 6 Place Saint Sulpice smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters recommend fall and winter, with spring third and summer well behind, and it is picked mostly for evenings and nights out. Although it is unisex, voters read it as more masculine.

The top opens with lavender, clary sage and bergamot. Saffron, nutmeg and coriander warm the heart with spice. Labdanum and leather underneath settle into a resinous, creamy, smoky sweetness as it dries.
