What does Custom smell like?
It opens with fruity notes and apple, which give it a lightly sweet freshness. Black pepper adds a dry, spicy edge in the heart. In the base, frankincense and cedarwood settle the scent onto a resinous, woody and faintly smoky footing.
Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall, followed by spring, and daily wear and the office lead the occasions. Voters mostly call it masculine, with classic and modern close behind. Atelier Flou Monsieur mon Amour and Carthusia 1681 have a close profile.
