What does Java smell like?

Lemon grass and citrus give it a green freshness, while oakmoss and vetiver settle it onto an earthy base. Patchouli, papyrus and oud build a woody, slightly smoky body, with balsam adding a resinous softness and spicy and leathery touches adding edge.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, though spring is not far behind. It reads equally well on men and women. Sorce Vampire Husband and Féraud Nuit des Sens have a close profile.
