What does No̱16 - Faded smell like?

The top notes bring coriander, cinnamon, rosewood and cardamom in a spicy start. In the heart, rose, leather and sage lead, with hedione lightening them slightly. The base is dominated by patchouli, tobacco, frankincense and amber, and the accords read as green, woody, resinous, earthy and leathery.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are best taken with caution. It suits anyone drawn to a dry, smoky character without a gender lean. Sigilli Electra and Amouage Memoir Man have a close profile.
