What does Tenmoku I - Mei Hua San Nong smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though few people have voted, so treat both as a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes, so it can't be tied to a particular time, and as a unisex scent it doesn't lean masculine or feminine.

It opens on Chinese plum wine. The heart brings wintersweet, red plum blossom and white plum blossom into a sweet floral mix. The base of Indian sandalwood, oud, ambergris, musk and resins adds woody, animal and smoky depth, with a spicy, oriental thread running through.
