What does #003 Carpenter smell like?

Pink pepper and bergamot bring a light sharpness at the start, while cardamom, ginger, cinnamon and carrot push the spice forward in the heart. In the base, ambroxan, patchouli and benzoin soften the sweetness, and Virginia cedar, Texas cedar and sandalwood give it a woody frame. A powdery side and a distinctly synthetic feel run through the accords.

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin without filling a room. The vote count is small, so these ratings are only a rough guide. It is positioned as a masculine scent; Gisada Titanium and Byredo Eyes Closed have a close profile.
