What does Purpose 50 smell like?

Bergamot and pink pepper give the opening some light, while pimento and frankincense add a resinous warmth. In the heart, vetiver, papyrus and sandalwood build a woody frame softened by rose. The base brings vanilla and saffron sweetness, with suede leaving a leathery, smoky trail.

Longevity and sillage are both rated very strong. Most voters pick winter and fall, with summer a distant last, and it leans towards night-out and evening wear. Most voters read it as masculine and modern. Amouage Purpose and Monkoku Crimson Spell have a close profile.
