What does I Am Darkness smell like?

It opens with incense resin, fir, grapefruit and bergamot, with black pepper adding a spicy edge. In the heart, jasmine, ylang-ylang, frangipani and coffee sit on a smoky, coffee-tinged base, with Cambodian oud in the background. The base of oakmoss, labdanum and frankincense carries the chypre and resinous character through.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn, followed by winter, and leisure and evening wear lead. It reads closer to masculine. Meo Fusciuni 1# Nota di Viaggio and Moresque Ubar 1992 have a close profile.
