Which Should You Buy?
A creamy, softly spiced amber that is strong, warm and best from autumn to spring. Ginger, mandarin and jasmine open it, a salty vanilla heart follows, and ambergris, cashmeran and sandalwood close.
Salt is the surprise in this warm, slightly marine amber after Paco Rabanne Olympéa. Green mandarin and ginger lift it, and vanilla, ambergris and sandalwood carry it to a soft finish.
