Longevity and sillage are both rated strong. Most voters pick fall and winter, and it leans towards evenings and nights out. It reads masculine, yet modern.
It opens with black pepper, which gives a dry, spicy edge. The heart is built from cypriol, amyris and cedarwood, where the woody side dominates. Leather settles underneath, while the sweet and synthetic accords soften the whole. Burberry Hero Parfum and Burberry Hero Elixir de Parfum have a close profile.
