Jean-Claude Jitrois's 1988 signature release, crafted by Jean-Claude Ellena, is a fascinating cross between a mossy green chypre and a warm, resinous leather. It starts with a sharp, bright puff of aldehydes and bergamot, backed by a dry coriander spice. As it rests on skin, the cold green opening gives way to a dense floral heart of carnation and gardenia, before settling into a dark base of myrrh, oakmoss, and castoreum-infused leather. This is a complex, vintage scent suited for cool autumn evenings and formal winter settings. It is best for those who love bold, old-school structures, making a sample mandatory before hunting down a rare bottle. Show less
