What does Centaurus smell like?

It opens warm and spicy with cardamom, cinnamon, pink pepper and tobacco. In the heart, sandalwood, jasmine and patchouli build a woody, floral footing. The base turns gourmand and soft, with Bourbon vanilla, tonka bean, benzoin and tolu balm.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and night out lead the occasions. It reads more masculine than feminine in the votes, though modern and feminine both get a share. Phil Julian Fovere and Parfums de Marly Pegasus Exclusif have a close profile.
