What does Hinoki Fantôme (2021) smell like?

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, though both ratings rest on few votes. It has been discontinued, and it reads as neither distinctly masculine nor feminine.

The notes blend as a single whole rather than unfolding in stages. Hinoki cypress, cypress and Atlas cedar form the woody frame, while smoked leather, tobacco and frankincense add the smoke. Oakmoss, cistus and patchouli bring an earthy depth, and iris and black pepper keep it from feeling heavy. The accords set a fresh, green streak beside a creamy, slightly sweet softness. Versace Fleur de Maté and Gom Rgyal Mo have a close profile.
