What does Coliva - Gourmand Potion smell like?

It opens with white chocolate, cocoa bean and coffee forming a sweet gourmand base, while liquorice, cardamom and frankincense add spice and resin. In the heart, bread and iris bring a soft, earthy floral touch, and cedarwood and cypriol dry it out. The base keeps the sweetness going with vanilla, tonka bean and butter, while labdanum, ambergris and animalic notes leave it warm and deep.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so treat that as a rough guide. The dense sweetness and resinous base suit cooler weather, and it reads comfortably on both men and women.
