Minotaure Eau de Toilette by Paloma Picasso 2.5 oz – woody aromatic fougere fragrance for men launched in 1992.
This refined, sophisticated cologne delivers masculine elegance with a spicy-woody character created by perfumers Gerard Anthony and Jacques Jullien. The composition opens with aromatic tarragon, zesty aldehydes, crisp bergamot, bright lemon, exotic galbanum, and soothing lavender, creating a fresh herbal-citrus introduction with aldehydic sparkle. At the heart, spicy coriander blends with warm cinnamon, soft geranium, earthy vetiver, rich patchouli, and aromatic sage, adding complex spice-herbal depth. The dry down settles into creamy sandalwood, warm amber, green oakmoss, soft musk, and smooth tonka bean, leaving a refined, masculine trail with woody sophistication.
