What does Amber Teutonic smell like?

It begins fresh and lightly spiced, with green mandarin orange and cardamom set against alpine cedar. The heart keeps the green, woody picture going with silver fir cone, European larch and geranium. In the base, musk, opoponax and European black pine make the finish sweet, resinous and earthy.

Most voters pick autumn and winter, and it leans towards evenings and leisure wear. Longevity and sillage are both rated good. More voters call it masculine than feminine, though a sizeable share finds it feminine. January Scent Project Treebuoy and Franck Boclet Fir Balsam have a close profile.
