What does Onyx Air smell like?

The top holds rose absolute and ozone. Jasmine, amber, truffle and fig lead the heart. In the base, clove, cinnamon and vanilla carry a spicy sweetness, while oakmoss, Thai oud and ambergris settle it onto a woody, oriental footing.

Voters find both longevity and sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so that reading should be taken with caution. Being unisex, it suits women and men alike, with a dense, warm profile. Aaron Terence Hughes Onyx Extreme and Kilian Rose Oud have a close profile.
