What does Royal Barn smell like?

It opens with artemisia, mandarin orange leaf and Indian civet. Tagetes, jasmine and rose lead the heart, joined by champaca and palmarosa. The base builds an earthy, leathery floor from hay absolute, Bhutanese oud and black truffle, softened by tonka bean and vanilla.

Its longevity and sillage are rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and leisure wear stand out. More voters read it as masculine, though classic and feminine both draw a fair share.
