What does Bois de Vincennes smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate. The vote counts are small, so these figures are a rough guide rather than a firm measure. With no season or occasion votes, it sits as a general men's scent close to everyday wear.

Mandarin orange and violet leaf give it a fresh, green brightness. Iris and jasmine add a soft, lightly powdery floral touch. Cedarwood, leather and amber build a woody, leathery depth with a hint of sweetness, and musk softens the whole. Smoky and earthy shades stay in the background. Elizabeth Arden My Fifth Avenue and Trussardi Musc Noir have a close profile to Zara Bois de Vincennes.
