How does it perform?
From 16 community ratings, all out of 10.
Holds up through the day and fades gently toward evening.
Leaves a light trail and stays polite in a crowd.
Sits nicely on a shelf.
The price makes you think, so a small size is a smart start.

What does Supernova smell like?
Supernova lasts well and projects moderately, so it stays close rather than filling a room. Only a few people have rated it, so these impressions are tentative. It is unisex and does not lean toward either gender.
Up top, cinnamon, saffron and cardamom give a warm spice opening. In the heart, cedarwood, lavender and cypress build a woody, slightly powdery base. The drydown settles on vetiver, leather and oud, where resinous, leathery and animal tones deepen the chypre character. Parfums de Marly Haltane and Ramón Monegal Agar Musk have a close profile.
