What does King's Jester (Parfum) smell like?

It opens with candle wax and red mandarin orange; the mandarin softens the edge while the wax adds a faintly waxy texture. The heart holds tonka bean, metal and cashmere. The base is dominated by ebony, vanilla, suede and oak wood, where the leathery and earthy accords become clearest and the vanilla sweetens the dryness a little.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, though the number of votes is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It reads as suited to both men and women who like dark, woody fragrances. Its profile is close to Chiseled Face Midnight Stag and Toskovat' Take Me to Church.
