What does Bärleen smell like?

It opens with roasted coffee, dark chocolate and cocoa, while diesel fuel and leather roughen the sweetness. Oud sits in the heart, and pheromones and animalic notes settle in the base. The accords add spicy, woody, resinous, earthy and smoky sides.

Longevity is rated very strong and sillage strong, though the number of votes is small, so treat those readings with caution. Its dense, heavy character suits cooler weather better and is not aimed at anyone wanting something light and clean. Duftkumpels Bärleen X-Treme and Yves Saint Laurent Sleek Suede have a close profile.
