What does Serotonin smell like?

Voters find its longevity good and its sillage moderate. It leans towards evenings and nights out, with leisure wear mentioned now and then. Fewer pick it for daily or office use.

Benzoin, musk and labdanum lay a resinous groundwork. Caramel, honey, vanilla and tonka bean push the sweetness further in the heart. Sesame, rum and cinnamon in the base pull it towards a spicy, woody warmth. The overall impression is rich and oriental. The Dua Brand Amberlicious and Parfums de Marly Oajan have a close profile.
