Our verdict on Nous Sommes Amants. M.D.: Statement

This one's a divisive woody number - some find it an amazing, naturalistic palo santo dream, while others are left cold by its pencil-shavings vibe or limited staying power. Expect a crisp, peppery opening that settles into a soft, woody skin scent.

Spring

A cold-weather scent - best worn in autumn and winter.

Best Occasions

Best For:
Casual
Also Works:
Office Date

Given its woody and aromatic profile, and the general consensus that it's a soft, intimate performer, this is ideal for casual wear where close-quarters pleasantness is key. It's too subtle for formal events, and just a bit too distinctive for everyday office wear, but good for a relaxed date.

About

Nous Sommes Amants M.D. opens with a fresh, sharp burst of juniper and black and pink pepper, bright and invigorating, with a green whisper of bamboo. This quickly mellows into the creamy, almost smoky heart of palo santo, a truly distinctive woody note. As it dries down, a blend of warm sandalwood and cedar emerges, softened by a touch of musk and a dark, leathery hint, grounding the fragrance in a cosy, dry woodiness.
