What does The Race 2.0 for Him smell like?

The opening pairs the freshness of elemi resin and black pepper with spice, while violet softens the start. In the heart, frankincense, iris and patchouli take over, and the resinous, smoky side becomes clear. The base of sandalwood, gaiac wood and benzoin dries down creamy and sweetly warm.

Its longevity and sillage are rated as good, though that rests on only a few votes. It also scores well for value. It reads masculine. Those after a similar profile may also look at Franck Boclet Incense and Lalique Encre Noire à L'Extrême.
