Our verdict on J’approchais Un Mystère A.C.: Statement

A woody-green journey that takes its sweet time to get to the good bit - a creamy, nutty sandalwood drydown that's utterly divine, if fleeting. Worth the wait for some, others will find it just 'average' before it vanishes.

About

It kicks off with a fresh, crisp blast of fig leaf and a spark of pink pepper, before sinking into a heart of rich, dry cedar. The real magic happens later, as it slowly morphs into a soft, creamy sandalwood with a slightly gourmand nuttiness that's truly addictive, though it doesn't linger for long.
