What does Morpheus smell like?

Voters rate both its longevity and its sillage as strong, so it stays on the skin for a long time and projects well. It sits comfortably between masculine and feminine. There are no season or occasion votes, so nothing can be said on that front.

It opens with pink pepper, cardamom and frankincense, a spicy, slightly resinous start. In the heart, tonka bean absolute, amber and osmanthus sweeten it and add a creamy softness. The base of patchouli, sandalwood, Thai oud and Haitian vetiver is woody and smoky. Tom Ford Oud Wood (Eau de Parfum) and Initio Side Effect have a close profile.
