What does Absolute Aphrodisiac smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, and summer is rarely chosen. Dinner evenings and nights out lead, while the office comes up less. Most voters read it as feminine, though a fair share call it masculine.

Vanilla and amber build a sweet, creamy base. White blossoms pull that base towards a floral, powdery side. Musk and castoreum add a spicy, faintly animal depth. The gourmand sweetness dominates, with oriental warmth behind it. Initio Blessed Baraka has a close profile.
