What does Rock the Myrrh smell like?
Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick fall and winter, and evening and nights out lead the occasions, though it also works for leisure time. Masculine and feminine votes run close, so it sits comfortably on either side.
It opens with cypress and pink pepper, then moves to Indonesian patchouli and myrrh. Suede, Siam benzoin and labdanum settle into a sweet, leathery warmth at the base. The overall feel is sweet, spicy, woody and earthy.
