What does Cola smell like?

Orange adds a fruity brightness, cinnamon and nutmeg bring the spice, vanilla and tonka bean the sweetness, and labdanum and opoponax absolute add a resinous, slightly smoky depth. As a whole it reads warm, oriental and richly gourmand.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, and leisure and evening wear come up most often. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it sits comfortably on either. Tola Anbar and Birkholz Berlin Fever have a close profile.
