What does M/Mink smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn, then winter and spring, with summer well behind. It is chosen mostly for leisure time and evenings out. More voters find it masculine than feminine, though a fair share read it as feminine.

Adoxal sits on top and frankincense in the heart, over a base of amber, clover honey and patchouli. The fresh, green start soon gives way to a spicy, woody, resinous warmth, with the honey's sweetness checked by earthy patchouli. Animal and smoky shades stay in the background. Its profile is close to Profumum Roma Patchouly and D.S. & Durga Siberian Snow.
