Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn, winter and spring, while summer stays in the background. It leans towards night outs and evenings, and is also worn for leisure.
Dried fruits, black tea and saffron open it. In the heart, latex, Palo Santo and vetiver build a woody, smoky base. Musk and pheromones in the base bring out the animal side. Rammstein Benzin and Montale Dark Aoud have a close profile.
