What does Habana Cocoa Essenca smell like?

It is rated as very strong in longevity and good in sillage; every voter rates its longevity high, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough picture.

Virginia tobacco and leather open dry and leathery. At the heart, Madagascan and Indian cocoa absolutes carry a gourmand sweetness, with fruity and spicy accords alongside. The base of Spanish labdanum absolute, Siberian castoreum and Siam benzoin settles into a warm, resinous, smoky ground. Duftkumpels Habana Cocoa and Laboratorio Olfattivo Nektar have a close profile.
