OrientalWhat does Decibel smell like?
Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick spring, autumn and winter, while summer stays in the background. It suits daily wear and evenings out, and most voters find it masculine, with some calling it modern.
It opens with aldehydes and green mandarin orange. In the heart, frankincense, liquorice and violet come forward. The base of tonka bean, vanilla, Haitian vetiver and sandalwood sweetens it and settles it on a woody ground. Its profile is close to Tom Ford Black Orchid (Eau de Parfum) and Dior Hypnotic Poison (2014) (Eau de Parfum).
