What does Filth XXL smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong, and most voters score them high, though the small number of votes makes this a tendency rather than a firm verdict. It reads as neither masculine nor feminine, and its density calls for a careful hand.

It opens with jasmine sambac and gardenia. In the heart, amber, toffee, oud and chocolate turn it sweet and creamy, with a gourmand feel. The base is dominated by animalic musk, leather, soil and patchouli, and the spicy, woody notes sit over that earthy ground.
