What does Filth smell like?

It opens on a floral frame of rose, gardenia and jasmine sambac. In the heart, chocolate and amber sweeten and soften it. The base is led by patchouli, animalic musk and leather, while the spicy, powdery and resinous accords add further depth.

Though the vote count is small, both longevity and sillage are rated strong, so this is a dense scent that leaves a trail. It reads as oriental and bold, suited to men and women alike. Aaron Terence Hughes Filth XXL and Montale Aoud Night have a close profile.
