What does Hippie Spirit / Hippie Gypsy smell like?

The notes carry no top, heart and base split, so it reads as one piece from start to finish. Patchouli and nag champa lay a resinous, spicy ground, champaca adds a soft floral touch, and musk pulls it together with a sweet, oriental warmth. The green, smoky side comes through in the hemp flower.

Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick autumn and spring, and it sits closer to leisure and evening wear. More voters call it feminine than masculine, though the masculine share is sizeable, so it moves comfortably between the two. Alkemia Arcanum and Voile Doré have a close profile.
