What does Renaissance / Renaissance Man smell like?

Voters find its longevity and sillage good, though the vote counts are small. It leans towards evenings and nights out, with leisure and daily wear following behind.

The top has bergamot, marine notes and ginger. Towards the heart come sage, honey and cinnamon, giving a sweet, gourmand, spicy warmth. The base settles into tobacco, tonka bean and leather, and the scent turns woody, smoky and powdery. The aquatic accord adds a fresh edge to the sweet body.
