What does Delirium smell like?

It opens with black pepper, pink pepper and angelica, a spicy, fresh start. In the heart, vetiver, elemi resin and woody notes lay down a green, dry base. At the bottom, frankincense and opoponax pull the scent towards something resinous, smoky and faintly sweet, with a synthetic sheen sitting in the background.

Longevity is moderate and sillage is rated good. Its woody, spicy character leans neither masculine nor feminine, so it reads as unisex. Joop! Joop! Homme Absolute and Montblanc Black Meisterstück have a close profile.
