What does George smell like?

Most voters pick fall, then winter, and it is mentioned most for evenings and nights out. Its longevity and sillage are both rated good. Voters read it as slightly more masculine, though a good share call it feminine.

It opens with bergamot and neroli, a fresh citrus-floral start. Coffee, heliotrope and tobacco then bring warmth, sweetness and smoke to the heart. Myrrh, Peru balsam and white musk settle into a resinous, woody, earthy base. Sfumato Arcanum and Beaufort Acrasia have a close profile.
