What does Nefarious smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick fall, then winter and spring, while summer trails far behind. Leisure, night out and evening wear get nearly equal votes. Voters lean slightly feminine, though a good share call it masculine.

It opens with saffron, peach and cinnamon, where spice and fruit make a sweet start. In the heart, orange blossom, neroli and damask rose add a soft floral layer. The base of musk, oud, sandalwood and amber dries down woody, resinous and smoky. Guerlain Santal Royal and Lattafa Opulent Oud have a close profile.
