About Maison Crivelli Papyrus Moleculaire EDP
Papyrus Moleculaire EDP is made by Maison Crivelli. Its strength is Eau de Parfum.
Papyrus Moleculaire for work or evenings
This is more of a daytime scent that suits the office and everyday wear. Its aromatic side keeps it clean and easy. For evenings, Amouage Opus Xiv Royal Tobacco has more depth.
The style of Papyrus Moleculaire
The strongest accord is woody (100%), followed by aromatic and fresh spicy. You will probably like it if you enjoy woody and aromatic smells and notes like davana and cedar. Less obvious notes include juniper, incense and leather. Perfume fans rate it 3.94 out of 5.
