SmokyWhat does Nabu Destiny smell like?
Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Votes spread fairly evenly across leisure, evening, daily wear, a night out and business, so it isn't tied to one setting, though evenings and relaxed days come first.
It opens with frankincense and cedarwood, which set a smoky, woody base. Cinnamon and saffron bring the spice in the heart, and the sweetness rises there too. Leathery notes close it in the base, keeping it warm and dark.
