What does Kasturi Cola smell like?

The notes read as one whole: cola and spices carry the sweetness and heat, while Bangladeshian and Vietnamese oud add a woody, resinous depth. Virginia, pipe and Aztec tobacco pull that sweetness toward dryness, and several deer musks give it an animal, creamy softness. A citrus lift brightens it, with an oriental warmth underneath.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong, and almost all voters rate the longevity high, though the number of votes is small. With its dark, sweet and animal tones, it suits men and women alike and makes itself noticed.
