    Did I just read the word “chypre”?

      Yes. A modern chypre, I’m sure.

      “Modern chypre” = “contains patchouli”.

    I know what the phrase “banana republic” means, but I swear, every time I read the name of one of their scents, I briefly think that whatever it is, is smells like bananas.

    What exactly does “pink suede” smell like?

      I’m sure they want to emphasize that it isn’t *too* animalic.
