What does Series 6: Synthetic - Garage smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters recommend fall and winter, with spring next, and it is picked mostly for leisure and evening wear. Though unisex, half of the voters read it as masculine.

The notes are kerosene, cedarwood and vetiver, with no top, heart and base split: it reads as one whole. The kerosene gives a hard, metallic synthetic edge over a spicy, resinous woodiness, vetiver adds an earthy base, and cedarwood wraps everything in a dry smokiness. Leathery tones stay in the background. Black Comme des Garçons and Initio Divine Attraction have a close profile.
