What does Gryffindor smell like?

Black pepper and blackcurrant bud sit alongside tea for a spicy, slightly fruity start. In the heart, orris butter and black dahlia build a powdery floral character, softened by ambrox. Bourbon vanilla, French musk and Indonesian patchouli leave a sweet, warm base; the overall impression is powdery and sweet with a synthetic edge.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, though the number of votes is small, so these impressions are tentative. It does not lean masculine or feminine. Bohoboco Eternal Lily Amber and Novellista Couture Chic have a close profile.
