What does Paperplane smell like?

Its longevity rates as good and its sillage as moderate, though few people have rated it, so those figures are tentative. It reads neither masculine nor feminine and suits anyone.

It opens with pepper and frankincense, then sage, vetiver and cypriol form a woody core. Musk, amber and oakmoss soften the base. A synthetic edge runs through the accords. One of those [⁸O] Oxygen and Dsquared² He Wood Silver Wind Wood have a close profile.
