What does Mušhuššu - Babylonia smell like?

Longevity and sillage are both rated moderate. Most voters pick fall, winter and spring, with summer well behind. Leisure and evening wear lead, and while more voters read it as masculine, a good share call it feminine, so it sits comfortably on either side.

It opens with pepper, elemi resin and frankincense, a fresh, slightly green spice. Nutmeg and curly mint in the heart soften that edge. The base of oud, labdanum, frankincense and sandalwood settles into a smoky, leathery, resinous wood. Comme des Garçons Series 3: Incense - Ouarzazate and Zara Mountain Woody Forest have a close profile.
