About This Perfume
Frederic Malle Editions de Parfums Monsieur smells like smoky rum and incense, leathery suede. It opens with rum and tangerine, moves into patchouli, incense and cedar and settles on musk, vanilla and suede. It leans masculine, though anyone can wear it.
It is best in spring, fall and winter and is an evening scent. A good pick for nights out. Released in 2015.
Wearers report that it lasts well into the evening, and projects strongly and fills a room.
Is it right for you?
- Best for: anyone after something woody and grounded for nights out.
- Sample first if: you prefer quiet scents; it projects.
- Skip if: you dislike woody fragrances.
Around $425.
