From your scent profile
Arquiste Misfit is a unisex scent where lavender, rose and tolu balm come forward, in a spicy, woody, resinous style.
Skunky's take: The spicy side leads and gives it real character.

French lavender, angelica root, carrot seed and Calabrian bergamot open it dry, herbal and lightly citrusy. Bulgarian rose, styrax and ambrette seed carry the heart, and tolu balm, tonka bean, patchouli and cistus settle it onto a sweet, resinous, earthy base.
Voters rate both its longevity and its sillage as good, though the vote count is small, so those ratings are tentative. Its spicy, oriental build suits cooler seasons and evening wear. Heretic Dragon's Blood and Scentiments Night of Incence have a close profile.
