Longevity and sillage are both rated good. Most voters pick autumn and winter, with spring not far behind and summer the least favoured. It leans towards evenings, leisure time and the office. Voters tend to find it masculine and classic.
Mandarin orange gives the opening a light lift. In the heart, the two vetivers and nutmeg take over, giving a green, spicy, earthy feel. The base of patchouli and Australian sandalwood adds a woody, resinous, smoky ground. It reads dry rather than sweet. Lalique Encre Noire à L'Extrême and Odin New York 07 Tanoke have a close profile.
