What does Abrakabarber smell like?

It opens with pink pepper, juniper, lime and galbanum, sharp and green. In the heart, osmanthus, Atlas cedar and smoke bring a woody, resinous feel. Vanilla, vetiver, leather and tonka bean sweeten and soften the base.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters recommend fall and spring, and leisure, daily wear and business get the most votes. It reads more masculine than feminine. Féraud Nuit des Sens and Creed Royal Oud have a close profile.
