What does Geisha Noire (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and evening and night out are the occasions it leans towards. It is unisex, though most voters read it as more feminine.

Sandalwood, tonka bean and black amber sit together from start to finish. The sweetness is held in check by spice, over a woody, powdery base with a faint animalic warmth and a smoky touch. Edward Bess Spanish Veil and Christian Louboutin Loubiprince have a close profile.
