What does IV smell like?

It opens with rum, davana, blackcurrant and cardamom, where fruity sweetness meets spice. In the heart, leather, palm blossom and jasmine tilt the scent towards a smoky, leathery mood. The base of khola date, vanilla, woods and musk dries down warm, woody and oriental.

Longevity and sillage are both rated strong, so a light hand is enough. Its dense build sits more comfortably in cooler weather. Those after a close profile may also look at Tom Ford Tuscan Leather Intense and Widian London Black Edition.
