What does Solis smell like?

Solis has been discontinued. Its longevity is rated strong and its sillage good. Most voters point to winter and autumn, with spring and summer trailing behind. It leans towards evenings and nights out, and it reads neither clearly masculine nor feminine, as votes split almost evenly between the two.

Davana sits at the top. Benzoin and vetiver form the heart, and oud and vanilla weigh in at the base. A floral touch and a spicy, woody edge run through it, while the sweetness is softened by a creamy quality.
