What does Serpent - True Whisky Scent smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated moderate, and some voters find both high. With only a few votes behind these ratings, they are a rough guide at best. There is not enough information to say which seasons or occasions it suits.

It opens with lemon, bergamot, rum, ginger and lavender, a fresh and spicy start. In the heart, sandalwood, tobacco and geranium take over, with the solar note adding warmth. The base of vanilla, ambergris, musk, tonka bean and vetiver settles into a sweeter, powdery and creamy finish, while animal, chypre and fougère facets stay in the background.
