What does SHK IV smell like?

It opens bright with Italian bergamot, mandarin orange and pink pepper, while honey and elemi resin soften that freshness and nutmeg adds a light spice. In the heart, saffron and cinnamon bring a spiced warmth, balanced by patchouli, jasmine and orange blossom. The base of oud, amber, vetiver and leather builds a woody, resinous depth; pear and raspberry keep the sweetness going, and musk and oakmoss smooth the dry-down.

Its sweet, spiced character leans towards cooler weather. There are too few votes to say much about its projection, longevity or season.
