What does Howl smell like?

The top notes are Provençal lavender and thyme, giving a green, herbal start. In the heart, tonka bean, geranium and cinnamon come forward and the scent turns gourmand and creamy. Musk, patchouli and amber settle it onto a soft, woody base.

Its longevity is rated good and its sillage moderate, so it stays fairly close to the skin. The number of votes is small, so that reading is tentative. Its unisex character makes it easy to wear day to day. Perfumes with a close profile include J.F. Schwarzlose Berlin Bachanal and Birkholz Vanilla Vibes.
