Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn, then winter, and evening and night out lead the occasions. It reads closer to masculine, though it stays unisex.
The top opens with orange, coriander, cinnamon and blackberry, a fruity spice. In the heart, frankincense, honey and vanilla sweetness mixes with a resinous warmth. The base settles on oud, amber and patchouli, woody and smoky. Floral and oriental accords stay in the background. Amouage Jubilation XXV Man and Amouage Jubilation 40 have a close profile.
