Sillage: /siːˈjɑːʒ/ This term is originally French for wake and and is pronounced see yazh
In English, specifically perfumery the term Sillage has a similar yet highly specific meaning. It is a borrowed word referring to the wake of scent that a person wearing a fragrance leaves behind. The sillage of a scent refers to the fragrance that it projects, scents with high sillage leap from the skin and are easily detectable from a distance. Scents with a lower sillage are more intimate and stay close to the skin.
