What does Freak (Eau de Parfum) smell like?

Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters pick fall and winter, with spring not far behind, and its use is spread fairly evenly across daytime, evening and night out. It reads more feminine than masculine, though a good share of voters call it masculine. Guerlain Rose Nacrée du Désert and Guerlain Myrrhe & Délires have a close profile.

Opium poppy, belladonna and davana open it, while datura and queen-of-the-night build the floral heart. Frankincense, myrrh and oud form a resinous, woody, smoky base. Sweet, spicy and powdery accords soften that weight.
