What does Burning Core smell like?
Longevity and sillage are both rated good, though the small number of votes means this is only a rough guide. With no season or occasion votes, it is hard to say when it suits best. It does not lean toward either gender.
Ginger and milk open on a fresh, spicy creaminess. In the heart, vanilla, vanilla absolute and benzoin build a sweet, warm base, while cade juniper adds a smoky edge. The base brings leather, salty notes and crème brûlée. Roja Parfums Espresso Aoud and French Avenue Coconut Leche have a close profile.
