What does In Extremis smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, with evenings and nights out leading, though it also works for leisure. Most voters read it as masculine, but a fair share find it feminine.

It opens with mastic, angelica, galbanum and birch, which give a green, resinous edge. In the heart, frankincense, magnolia and osmanthus add a floral, sweet softness. The base of vetiver, leather, patchouli and oud leaves a woody, earthy, leathery trail.
