Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate. The number of ratings is small, so this shows a tendency rather than a firm verdict.
It opens with Egyptian cumin, Indonesian black pepper and Guatemala cardamom, a warm and spicy start. In the heart, patchouli, vetiver and carrot seed lay down an earthy, woody base. In the base, mimosa, frankincense and tuberose round it off creamy, powdery and floral. Jil Sander Strictly Fresh and Floraïku Boyish have a close profile.
