What does Deviant smell like?

It opens with raspberry leaf, which gives a green, fruity edge. The heart holds vanilla absolute, cedarwood and cherry: vanilla and cherry bring sweetness while cedarwood frames it with dry wood. The base is dominated by soil, smoke, cannabis, saffron and leather, giving a dark, spicy, resinous and leathery finish.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong, and most voters score them high. It is a dense, characterful scent that sits comfortably on anyone. Tobali Cypress Mask and Rich Mess Original have a close profile.
