SmokyWhat does Rosa Nigra smell like?
Rose and honey give it a floral but richly sweet character, which vanilla and tonka bean soften, while labdanum, frankincense and styrax add a resinous depth. Oud supplies a smoky, woody backdrop, and the spicy, oriental side of the scent dominates.
Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring well behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out. Both its longevity and its sillage are rated as good. On character, feminine votes edge ahead, with masculine votes close behind.
