What does KxxT smell like?

It opens with saffron and raspberry, a spicy fruit sweetness, and jasmine in the heart adds a soft floral touch. The base leans on patchouli, oud, cedarwood, ambergris, smoke and leather, while Tonkin musk and pheromones give this woody, resinous ground an animalic warmth.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring close behind. It reads dense and characterful without leaning masculine or feminine. Gucci Gucci Intense Oud and Tom Ford Tuscan Leather (Eau de Parfum) have a close profile.
