Chouette Vierge No. 6 starts with a sudden splash of Concord grapes, dark rum, and tart blackberry. It smells like crushed autumn berries steeped in spiced alcohol. Give it five minutes. Once that initial solvent lift evaporates, dry saffron, clove, and medicinal oud wood step forward to anchor the sweetness. As the day unfolds, a base of cedarwood, leather, and vanilla settles close to the skin. The oil leaves a noticeable sheen on your wrists. Wear this during freezing winter evenings or crisp fall nights when you want deep, resinous warmth. Avoid it on sticky summer afternoons. Show less
