What does Crimson and Clover smell like?
Its longevity is rated very strong and its sillage strong. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring far behind. It suits evenings and nights out best, and can also be worn for leisure.
It opens with cranberry, ginger, apple cider and clove, a spiced, fruity freshness. Towards the heart, sweet clover, hay, vetiver and green tobacco add a green, dry feel. The base of cigar, castoreum, barley malt, Vermont honey and amber leaves a sweet, resinous, smoky warmth. Folkwinds The Crimson Jabberwock and Arquiste Indigo Smoke have a close profile.
