What does Bourbon (Cologne) smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both moderate, though with few votes behind them this is only a rough guide. It reads masculine.

Fruity and sweet accords come first, with a soft gourmand side. White pepper adds spice, while American oak and amber bring a warm, woody, resinous depth. Powdery and creamy touches round it off. Hermès Ambre Narguilé and Rituals Oriental Essence - Victoire d'Ambre have a close profile.
