What does Rehab smell like?

Longevity is rated strong and sillage good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, spring comes next, and summer is chosen least. It leans towards evenings, leisure time and nights out, though it also works for the office. Votes split between masculine and feminine, with a slight edge to masculine.

The scent reads as one piece rather than stages: sandalwood and patchouli set a woody, creamy base, softened by musk. Black pepper adds spice, bergamot and lavender bring some freshness, and cedarwood keeps it dry. Hedione lightens the sweet, floral side.
