What does Robinson Bear smell like?

It opens with star anise and calone, while juniper berry and santolina bring a green, lightly spicy heart. In the base, patchouli, cistus, Virginia cedar and oakmoss settle the scent onto a woody, resinous ground, with a soft sweetness sitting behind the fresh character.

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters recommend summer and spring; leisure and daily wear get the most votes, and it also fits the office. Most read it as masculine, though a fair share find it feminine. Electimuss Black Caviar and Montale Sandflowers have a close profile.
