What does Boswellia Scotia smell like?

Resin and fir lead, while cypriol and patchouli give it a smoky, earthy base. Saffron and pink pepper add spice, and Mysore sandalwood leaves a soft woody finish. The overall feel is fresh, green and slightly dry.

Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick fall and winter, though spring is not far behind, and it suits leisure and evening wear best. It leans masculine but reads as unisex. Pierre Guillaume Monsieur and Marc Gebauer Berserker have a close profile.
