What does The Infidels smell like?

Longevity is good and sillage moderate. It leans towards evenings and nights out, and is picked less often for daytime or the office. Voters split almost evenly between masculine and feminine.

It opens with clove, pink pepper and Sicilian lemon, a spicy brightness. The heart brings opoponax, myrrh, several jasmines and roses into a floral, resinous body. In the base, Bourbon vanilla, amber, sandalwood and patchouli settle the scent into a sweet, woody, slightly smoky warmth.
