Both longevity and sillage are rated strong, and most voters pick fall, then winter, with spring not far behind. Its weight may feel heavy in summer heat. It sits comfortably on men and women alike.
It opens with strawberry, blackberry and caramel, while cedar, cinnamon and raspberry lead the heart. The base of leather, vanilla, patchouli and tonka bean carries it into a warm, gourmand, spicy and woody finish. The overall impression is sweet and creamy, with leather and wood keeping the sweetness in check. Parfums de Marly Eragon and Maison Alhambra Desert share a close profile.
