What does Sunset in Merauke smell like?

The perfume has been discontinued. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good, though only a small number of voters have weighed in, so those impressions are tentative. It reads as heavy and dense, and suits men and women alike.

The scent rests on a spicy, woody backbone, wrapped in resinous, earthy and leathery tones. Cocoa absolute and coffee add a dark, faintly sweet side, while civet absolute and black ambergris deepen the animal character. Green guava peel brings a thin fruity-green edge to this dark texture.
