What does Café M. smell like?

Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, and most voters score both highly. The vote count is small, so these figures are only a rough guide. There are no season or occasion votes, but the warm, dense profile suits cooler weather. It is presented as unisex.

The opening brings coffee, rum and cocoa, a dark, gourmand start. In the heart, vanilla orchid, saffron and tonka bean turn it creamy and spicy-sweet. The base of amberwood and benzoin leaves a soft, woody ground.
