Bandit, launched by Robert Piguet in 1944 and composed by Germaine Cellier, is presented as feminine and is mainly floral, with smaller green, woody, citrus, fresh and leathery touches.
It is a classic leather chypre, and the opening is sharp and bitter: galbanum gives a piercing green note, artemisia a bitter, herbal edge and aldehydes a sparkling brightness. The heart is a dense bouquet of rose and carnation, spicy and velvety. The base is where its daring character lies: leather gives a smoky, dry warmth, civet an animalic, skin-like depth, oakmoss a damp, mossy darkness and vetiver an earthy finish.
Most wearers report long-lasting wear, and the majority describe its sillage as strong. It is voted mainly for winter and autumn, and more often for night than day. It suits formal occasions and evenings, for someone who likes bold, bitter-green leather chypres and wants a scent with real character and history.
