What does Woody Chestnut smell like?

Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though the small number of votes makes that a tentative read. It suits men and women alike, and its warm, gourmand build points towards cooler weather.

It opens with pink pepper, clove and orange blossom, spicy with a faint floral edge. In the heart, cade juniper and gaiac wood bring a smoky woodiness around the chestnut. The base sweetens with Peru balsam and vanilla into a creamy, powdery softness, while cedarwood keeps the woody backbone.
