It is an eau de parfum, edp. This scent lands in the floral woody musk category and was created to be unisex.
Fragrantica: "Dawn Spenser Hurwitz is able to convey texture in a way I have never experienced in perfume. When I smell Chinchilla I FEEL soft fur and leather. It is an amazing trick. And when I wear this it makes me feel like a glamorous woman in the 1940s waiting to attend a show or an expensive dinner in New York."
Fragrantica: "It's mostly oakmoss, honey, and dusty vetiver on a bed of styrax. It has that vintage style animalic which is mostly the dusti animalic (not stinky) with twists of sweet honey."

Encompasses the tonality of very vintage perfumes. Starts off like Erin's Ma Bete and morphs into Ava Luxe's Kama. Definitely inspires a handful of curious sniffs. More of an evening wardrobe unless you're having affairs at lunchtime which then renders it completely apropos.
