What does Berlin Fever smell like?
It opens with ginger, cinnamon and cardamom for a spicy warmth, while tobacco adds a smoky shadow. In the heart, amber and nutmeg bring a resinous softness. The base of tonka bean, vanilla and musk deepens the sweetness, with patchouli laying a woody floor underneath.
Longevity and sillage are both rated as good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it is chosen most often for evenings and nights out. Most voters read it as masculine, though it remains unisex. Daniel Josier Ambre Tabac and François Delì Sweet Tobacco have a close profile.
