Baudelaire is supposedly a dark masculine concoction, which is devoid of any filthy or sleazy associations that the name desperately attempts to imply.
Opening with some juniper, it develops into a smoky incense outing, with leather, aromatic embellishments and a woody ambery drydown. The pepper adds a dusty vibe to the composition but, overall, it smells too generic in its underwhelming demeanour.
Rendering moderate sillage, disappointing lasting power and an expensive price tag, there's nothing particularly noteworthy about it.
