What does Jacomo de Jacomo In Black smell like?

It opens with spearmint and lemon for freshness, while cardamom adds a light spice. In the heart, cyclamen, lily of the valley and lavender bring a soft floral touch, and cedar builds a woody backbone. The base of amber, amberwood, vanilla, tonka bean and frankincense turns it sweet, resinous and slightly smoky.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good, though with few votes they are only a rough guide. The fresh opening and the sweet, oriental base balance each other, and the overall character reads masculine. Jacomo Jacomo de Jacomo Rouge and Emper Genius Victory have a close profile.
