Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.

Sits nicely on a shelf.

SmokyWhat does Dark Weed smell like?
It opens with blackcurrant, bergamot and rose for a fruity freshness, while the metal note adds a cold edge. In the heart, cannabis, rose absolute and rhubarb bring out the green side. In the base, patchouli, civet, tobacco, fir and Somalian frankincense settle it onto an earthy, resinous and smoky footing.
Both longevity and sillage are rated strong, with most voters scoring them high, so a light hand with the sprays makes sense. Perfumes with a close profile include D.S. & Durga Sir and Anatole Lebreton Grimoire.
