What does Nephrite Elixir smell like?

Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong. Most voters rate both high, though the number of votes is small, so it is only a leaning. It doesn't pull toward masculine or feminine and sits in between.

Up top, tangerine, lime and yuzu absolute carry the citrus, while holy basil, honey and Somalian frankincense add a green, sweet and resinous edge. In the heart, orris butter, patchouli, civet and green tea come forward, softened by osmanthus and linden blossom. At the base, oakmoss, labdanum, fir balsam and mushrooms settle the scent into a woody, earthy floor.
