Longevity and sillage are moderate. Most voters call it masculine; spring and summer lag well behind. Evening and night-out wear lead, though it handles daily use too.
It opens with bergamot, orange and cinnamon, giving a sweet, spicy start. In the heart, leather, vetiver and patchouli pull it towards woody and earthy ground. Labdanum, woods, amber and resins settle at the base, leaving a powdery, oriental, leathery trail.
