Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring second and summer well behind. It is chosen mostly for evenings, leisure time and nights out. Votes split almost evenly between masculine and feminine.
It opens on myrrh, then moves into gaiac wood and beeswax, giving it a woody, smoky turn. The base of benzoin, tonka bean and more myrrh keeps it sweet and spicy, with an earthy warmth underneath. Armani Privé Myrrhe Impériale and Ambre Cello have a close profile.
