What does Kościuszko smell like?

It opens with black pepper, orange bitters and bergamot, a lively mix of spice and citrus. In the heart, tobacco, Swiss cognac, Siberian fir and gun powder bring a smoky, resinous mood. The base of Texas cedar, cypress, vetiver and musk settles it onto a woody, earthy footing.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though both ratings rest on only a few votes. Overall ratings are high. Its fougère structure and woody character let it sit comfortably on men and women alike. Anyone after a similar profile could also look at Heeley Eau Sacrée and Mark Buxton Perfumes Free.
