Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out. It reads closer to masculine, though many call it classic.
The profile is spicy and woody. It opens with nutmeg, gaiac wood and precious woods, with vetiver, styrax and cedar leaf at the heart. The base of frankincense, tobacco absolute and cypriol adds resinous, earthy and leathery depth. Zara WO/02 Wood Street and Atelier des Ors Cuir Sacré have a close profile.
