What does Rufus Hound's Triumphant smell like?
Citrus and ylang-ylang lead at first. In the heart, galbanum and blackcurrant add a green, fruity tone, while clove brings a spicy warmth. The base of sandalwood, ambergris and musk settles into a woody, resinous and earthy finish.
Longevity and sillage are rated good. Most voters pick spring, followed by autumn and summer. It leans towards leisure and business wear, and also suits evenings. The character reads masculine and classic. Creed Silver Mountain Water and Creed Royal Oud have a close profile.
