OrientalWhat does This is not Testosterone smell like?
Cinnamon and cardamom give the top a spicy start. In the heart, vanilla and gaiac wood sweeten the scent and push it towards a creamy, gourmand side, while musk and amberwood leave a powdery, woody and slightly smoky base.
Its longevity and sillage are rated good, though the number of votes is small, so this is only a rough guide. It reads as neither strictly masculine nor feminine. Khadlaj Island Vanilla Dunes and Calvin Klein Nude Vanilla have a close profile.
