Hors-Piste won’t open new doors to any semi-seasoned fragrance wearer, but it’s lovely.
It’s a bright and zesty, juicy orange. It smells like freshly peeled mandarin in particular to me. The citrus smells super realistic initially and then grows a bit sweeter, towards more of a candy orange in the drydown.
It’s impossible to hate on this scent, although it’s been done before and performance is a downside to the entire style; Hors-Piste seems to be no exception in that regards. For the Bastille prices though, really great citrus option.
