What does Mythique (Extrait de Parfum) smell like?

It opens with whisky, rum, saffron and cognac, giving a boozy, spiced first impression. In the heart, tobacco, vanilla, chocolate, honey and coffee take over, turning creamy and oriental. Deer musk, ambergris and Indian oud leave a woody, resinous warmth underneath.

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good, and most voters score both high. Its rich, full build reads unisex, equally at home on women and men. Initio Side Effect and Guerlain Ambre Samar have a close profile.
