Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick autumn, then winter, and it fits leisure, work and daily wear. Many voters read it as masculine, though the balance stays open to anyone.
It opens with petitgrain, frankincense and black pepper, while cedarwood and cumin in the heart add a spicy, earthy tone. In the base, vetiver, cedarwood and sandalwood settle into a creamy woodiness. Pacifica Montana Sky and Lush Stayin Alive have a close profile.
