Starts out spicy and woody, and then dissolves into a vetiver soliflore that is rather uninteresting. The spicy start is nice, though.

This review is for the now discontinued Sycomore EdT. Yesterday, I finally tested the Sycomore EdT sample gifted me by a kind and generous fellow fragrance lover (thank you again!), and I wanted...

THIS is what I was hoping for in the Chanel Les Exclusifs line! While Gardenia was a disappointment, Sycomore is everything I look for in a fragrance: it's interesting, subtly sexy, stylish and...

A very, very natural smell. A smell of pine trees after rain in hot weather. Unexpectedly natural and beautiful.

Foliage and tall trees and rich, gritty dirt, soft smoke and damp greenery, and all the best smells of a forest ramble--but the hiker is wearing Prada boots and an Hermes scarf. This scent of a...

I bought a sample of this parfume but it did not smell anything.

I bought Bois des Iles and got a sample of Sycomore which I didn't like that much at first... It actually grew on me and I ended up loving it. It has this strange smell of something akin to sweat,...

I was excited to try Chanel's Les Exclusifs Sycomore for quite a while, having heard so many good things about it. I do like vetiver, and Sycomore is said to be an homage to that note. On first...

I got one of my biggest compliments ever, in public, from a total stranger, while wearing Chanel Sycomore. Let me begin by saying I don't like or wear Green perfumes. At all. Except for...

Green androgyny. I voted yes on repurchase, but there's a single note in this that gives me pause and knocks this down to a four: juniper. Love the smokey wood. Love the vetiver. If you...

I would have to say that for a wallop of wet, inky vetiver with woods and smoke, I much prefer Lalique's Encre Noire (the men's version). To me it has more movement and depth, whereas I found...

I do not like sweet fragrances and I tend to like slightly masculine fragrances with a hint of tobacco or leather or both. While I could be dead wrong about that in Sycomore, I am really enjoying...

To me Sycomore is a fresh green vetiver, very suitable for a man but to my taste,too green for a woman to wear. and it is similar to Cristalle eau vert.

I thought this was a lovely, quite unique woodsy fragrance; though not something I would reach for often. My daughter joined me a bit after I tried it. Right after she walked into the room she...

Sycomore is all juicy dark greens and lush woods, like walking through a deep dense forest after a storm. I'm delighted to finally sniff a blend where vetiver is front and center, and not just an...

Sycomore was my 'gateway' perfume. I still remember the day I casually spritzed my wrist at the Chanel counter in a department store. I hadn't even left the store when I lifted my wrist to my nose...

This scent is my new summer addiction. I must confess that at first spray I thought it was ashy and weird. Soon after that weirdness became something amazing. A fresh blend of incense and green...

Sycomore, to me, is waking up in the morning under evergreen trees while camping far far away from civilization. And it's been a LONG time since I've done that but the association was immediate...
