What does Berlin Dream smell like?

It opens with bergamot, pink pepper and rose, then amber, patchouli and cedarwood pull it into an oriental, resinous and slightly smoky direction. Vanilla sweetness settles at the base alongside the dry woodiness of vetiver and sandalwood, softened by musk.

Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out, though it also suits the office and everyday wear. Longevity and sillage are rated good. It reads somewhat masculine, but plenty of voters call it feminine. Birkholz Amber Intense and Penhaligon's As Sawira have a close profile.
